I notice today that my favorite season may be on it's way out. Sadly it doesn't last long....It comes when it's not quite still winter, but may still snow, and it's not quite all the way Spring. It's still cool enough to want a coat or jacket, but the sun is shining more and more. I noticed that my season might be waning, because when I got in the car after work today, it was almost too warm inside. You see my favorite season of the the year, is the season of the perfectly sun warmed car. Can you feel it?
You are chilly, maybe not cold, but in your bones chilly. You've been out running around doing whatever or maybe even been in church and as a reward of some kind the car has been in the perfect spot getting the perfect amount of sun. You open the car door and rather than being stifled by an overbearing heat, you are welcomed & enveloped, by the most wonderful warmth you can feel. You settle into the car seat and close your eyes. The warmth seeps into your bones, you take a deep breath.....and relax. What bliss! The only thing that makes it even better for me, is to have a good book to read in that perfect environment....quiet, no phones (cell or otherwise), no one else. I make it last as long as I can. I've even been known to nod off....ahhh the simple fleeting pleasures of life.

You're back -- huzzah!
I, too, glory in the sun-warmed car when it's a bit chilly. In fact, I hung out in my car for a while this week, also to find some quite reading space. Sometimes I go early to pick someone up just so that I can read or lie in the warm car.
We have so much in common, you and I.
It is a great season. You described it so well. I don't know if it's better than spring. I does need a name--maybe sprinter or wring.
