The bright sun easily tricks the mind into thinking the weather beyond the cabin requires no more than an autumn sweater. But we are so mistaken. The bright bright landscape now offers up a beautiful dose of Vitamin D, but if you're not careful it will also bless you with a stinging tinge of frost bite. I, am one of the not-careful ones. And my haphazard thinking has left me with some very red marks on my very white skin. I should know by now to be careful. Spring in the arctic can easily fool a newcomber. And just because the sunshine is whispering an oh-so-welcome "hello" does not mean that my summertime skirts are ready to be pulled from their closet shelves.
