More of the Same :: Sweater Season
As people who know me know well, I am a consumerist at heart (owning 3 Bridgestone bicycles is a case in point). I admit it. Yet I also am a man of simple pleasures, routine, practicality, neatness, and more. I have learned to control the consumerist in me through acceptance and discipline.
So a few years ago, after enduring one cold Minnesota winter after another, I had a winter clothing overhaul. I simply decided to wear v-neck merino wool sweaters for most of the winter. My mornings became easier as I simply perused one of the dozen or so sweaters, like the one pictured above, to don for the day.
Well, the weather over the last couple of days has led to this year's sweater season to begin in mid-September. Simple as that. Cold enough for a sweater, so sweater it is.
