Today is the first day of Spring. The sun is shining, birds are singing, flowers and trees are blooming and everyone who is allergic to the Jacaranda trees are sneezing. All is right with the world.

This is a beautiful time of year in Ajijic. The temperature is perfect. Days are warm and nights are comfortable for sleeping. Soon the rains will come and the magic of the rainy season will be upon us.

Basically, however, every month has its wonderful and exciting charms.

The first day of Spring up north is a very different situation. Yes, Spring is here but it can still be cold, wet and gray. Summer being a distant dream and oh such a short time before the chill of autumn and then the deep depression of winter.

One of the things I love best about Ajiic is the weather. Everyday is fantastic. We have so many things to deal with in life it is so nice that the weather is such a beautiful constant that is so calming for the soul. (more…)
