Do you prefer the winter or summer months?

[Cpvr]

What’s your favorite season, the winter or summer?

Personally, I can’t stand the winter months, but I love the summer time.

What about ya’ll?

Hard to say I love winter nights when it's cold and the heating is on in the house.

Summer months are better.. longer days meaning more sunshine which makes me more relaxed when gardening.

I prefer the variety of 4 seasons. I enjoy both my AC and the gas fireplace in their respective seasons.

It's starting to warm up a bit now and I wouldn't need the fireplace every night but my elderly cat doesn't accept that. When it starts getting dark he sits in front of the fireplace and stares at me until I turn it on.

I enjoyed winter more when I skied.. I also enjoyed summer more when I played beach volleyball and windsurfed. Since I don't do any of those activities anymore, just long walks, I would say neither but rather spring and fall. Summer would be my choice, except too many days of over 90 F requiring AC. Since our winter are seldom in the single digits and we have little snow, I would chose it, but we have wind that makes it very unpleasant.

Even though we can't have a cat, due to my wife's allergies.............gotta love cats!

As for us, where we currently live, winter months. Like Phoenix, the Las Vegas Valley is well known for it's very hot summers. We've seen it at 110 degrees here. We simply can't do anything outside in that kind of heat. My wife has to put on sunscreen on her face each time we go outside or she get red blotches on her face. There are times we really miss the snow of The Front Range of Colorado in winter and look forward to moving up into the Reno area where there are 4-seasons.

I like all four seasons. If I have a choice, I'll pick fall. I like the cool, crisp mornings then the warm sunshine later in the day. The morning mist hanging over the ponds, rivers and lakes. The smell leaves burning in the distance. The faint smell of chimney fire from fireplaces.

I guess early spring is the same as fall kinda.. early spring can give us frosty nights/morning and but when the sun comes out it gets warmer.
This is what we are having at the moment in the UK.

Winter. It really doesn't get cold enough here in Georgia to count as winter, most days. Only lasts about 3 months, and no lawn mowing. No bugs.

 

[Shortie]

I would have to say that neither winter or summer are something I prefer, I much prefer spring as I feel it feels just right, the temperature isn't too bad and I love it when the lighter nights start and the leaves start to grow on the trees and we start to see the blossom and flowers.

When we lived in Eureka, I loved summer. I would ride my bicycle for hours every day. I had this zig zag route around Eureka that was just shy of 15 miles and I would ride around it at least once but more often twice in the morning. But I also loved riding in the fog at night. I would get soaked, but it was warm and so much fun. I would ride a little less in the winter due to the rain being heavier. But I always managed to ride at least 10 miles a day.

Whenever I would get bored with that same route every day, I would ride out through Cutten, down to US101 and then get on the Waterfront Trail is a 6 mile paved bike path around Humboldt Bay. By the time I would get home that ride would be 19 miles.

Other times I would ride about half way around my primary route, but when I got downtown, I would ride across the three bridges out to the Samoa Peninsula to the US Coast Guard Station on the North Jetty. that added 10 miles to my usual 15.

Once instead of going left out to the Coast Guard Station on the other side of the three bridges commonly referred to as the "Samoa Bridge", I went right and rode to Arcata. I never did that again though because as soon as I hit the farthest point away from home, Cindy called and wanted me to come home. Then it took me awhile to get back. Since she was disabled, I always wanted to be within a half hour of home, and from just about anywhere in town I could get there in that amount of time.

But since I was in the hospital, and we moved to Edison, I rarely go anywhere during the day in summer. I slowly get used to it getting so hot, but by then it starts to cool off for winter again. In Eureka, 70° was a nice, warm day. After being here for a few weeks of 100° days, it seems like I'm freezing my buns off at 70°. Go figure...

But here's what I miss the most...

Winter.

 

[Nomad]

I like summer because I do not have to wear thick clothes.

I love Pennsylvania months, and all that comes with them.
