Indian Spring



Warm, wet, windy, with wispy mists blowing across the dune grass and scrub pines. Not balmy-warm, warm with a chill: a chill that could be a harbinger of the imminent spring, or the chill reminder of a winter only begun. A steady, damp breeze from the breakers just over the dunes to the south, coating the boardwalk with atomized droplets.

January thaw, Indian Spring. Ten more weeks of winter.
