Why spring? Because the good weather we're having now can't possibly continue; at holiday times, no matter what anyone says, they're always busy, and by then the weather is lousy. But springtime -- if I can't spend it in Paris* -- would be a perfect time. --tim *This is partly a joke and partly not. I've never been to Paris in the spring, only the early summer and the winter and the autumn. But since I am not planning any trips anywhere except to the local Zen retreat, this is all hypothetical. At best.
