"In the summer it gets real hot, enough to drive you mad if you don't go swimmin' or somethin'. But it's spring now, so it's pretty cool, and there's a lot of rain. Lots of flowers bloom this time of year though. Farmers are harvesting oranges and olives and stuff. It's pretty nice.... if you're not dealin' with the people."
He took a deep breath and let out a sigh. It was strange to reminisce about it. It was so familiar to him, but also so very not. He had felt alienated in his own home, but he knew it like the back of his hand.
"Lot of the shops close down in the winter once the tourists are gone, but a few mom-and-pop shops are probably open. But it's pretty quiet this time of year..."
