Quotes like those above remind us just how vital a role that our cars can play in our lives. They are transportation, escape, recreation, and the vehicle and the location of some of the most critical events in our lives. They can serve as a right of passage, and they represent a form of freedom hitherto unknown to us before we own our first car. Summer Tire Changeover Month reminds us that changing our tires twice a year is an important part of keeping this important part of our lives healthy, hale, and on the road.
History of Summer Tire Changeover Month
Tires have been with us a long time, the first ones being made from leather for use on carts, wagons, and bicycles of course. In 1847 there was a patent placed for the first pneumatic, or air based, tire that surprisingly never actually went into production. While various forms of these tire would come into production in the following years (just not that original design) it would take the invention of synthetic rubber to make pneumatic tires a common day occurrence. While there are literally thousands of different tire designs in the world today, for most of us there are just two we need to worry about.
The cut of the tread on the tire, along with specific other factors of design, can determine what conditions a tire is best suited for. It’s for this reason that most people maintain a separate set of tires for the Summer and Winter, each one specially designed to handle those seasons vagaries. During Summer Time Changeover Month it’s time to change from your winter tires to your summer ones. Not only does this provide you with the best possible grip on the road itself, but it also helps to extend the lifetime of both sets of tires.
How to celebrate Summer Tire Changeover Month
Celebrating Summer Tire Changeover Month is simple enough, it starts with just changing from one set of tires to the other. However, if you want to be complete about the process, then you can also take both sets of tires into a specialist and have them examine the tire to determine the length of the tread left on them and whether or not there’s any damage that they’ve sustained. This kind of maintenance ensures that your tires will last your vehicle as long as possible.

National Garden Month Activities
-
Stop and smell the roses
Visiting a local rose garden, or really any garden in general, can be a great, cheap date or just a fun way to celebrate National Garden Month. Pack a picnic and have a fun lunch after a romantic stroll amongst the flowers, or get your knowledge on by visiting a nearby nature conservatory.
-
Plant something
Giving life to plants may not be your thing… yet. It’s never too late to discover the joys of planting a seed and watching it grow. Even better, you could plant some herbs or veggies and experience the added joy of tasting the fruits, if you will, of your labor. April can be a great time to plant tomatoes, beets, corn, basil, and more.
-
Decorate your garden
Spicing up your green space isn’t just about planting some chili peppers. Turn your backyard garden into a Shangri-La by setting up some outdoor chairs or a comfy bench. You can transform it from a place for performing dirty labor into a place for breathing in some fresh, fragrant air.
Why We Love National Garden Month
-
It’s about Mother Nature
April means spring and spring means a chance to celebrate new life. Sure you can get outside just to enjoy the sun, but don’t forget to take note of all that’s budding around you. Tulips, freesia, sunflowers, and roses, and are just some of the flowers you might see in bloom during National Garden Month.
-
It’s about going back to your roots
There’s nothing quite like digging into the soil to plant a seed, and then watching it take root and grow. Getting dirty in the garden and watching new life form before your eyes brings a special kind of joy that’s you can’t really experience through any other activity.
-
It’s an excuse to get some Vitamin D
Our bodies produce Vitamin D as a response to sunlight, so being out in the garden means getting some good stuff flowing through your system. Vitamin D has all kind of great health benefits like helping with weight loss and bone development, and improving the immune system. Translation: gardening is good for your health!
Growing tired of winter yet? As much as we all may enjoy a cozy night by the fire, the change in seasons brings a much needed chance to shed that Vampire-like avoidance of daylight and venture back into the great outdoors. April is, after all, the month when spring springs, so April’s National Garden Month is the right time to get outside and enjoy Mother Nature’s colorful antidote to cabin fever.
