In 3.5 hours it will be Spring. This is good news and the weather out there is getting pretty dang nice. So, looking back on the Winter, here is what I wish I had.

1) Boots

While I do have some of my own L.L. Bean Boots, I never got into the Signature Series. I looked at these Navy and Brown ones all winter and just kinda wished I had some of my own.

2) Cable Knit Sweater

I never got around to getting any new sweaters. I ran out of money and never remembered to ask Grams to make me one. So by the end of the winter I realized that I had just worn all my summer sweaters right through. So, looking back I would have gone with this one from LEC or this one from Rugby, but ultimately one from my Grams.

3) Wool Trousers

I spent all winter oggling these, EP’s Trousers are just THE best out there. I have a pair of their chinos and they are just unbelievably crafted. A pair of their trousers would have been steezier than they are warm.

4) Socks

I had some socks that I got from Zeller’s that looked identical to this. The only real difference was the quality and price. 10 bucks for 4 pairs and left with 1 sock right now, or 10 bucks for 1 pair and left with 1 pair by now. Check these out at J. Shoppe.

5) Money

I am utterly and completely broke. My tax returns are huge though.
