As this blizzard pounds the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States, I think often of good times in Madrid. The clarifying light–perfect for photography. The abundant but not overpowering sunshine. The ease of a good Spanish lunch. The picante of a good chorizo. It’s just the right sort of place to be to welcome the beginning of summer.
