What's your favorite season? - Page 2

ZenGum · 11-10-2007, 06:48 AM

In the mediterranean climate of southern Australia, spring has pleasant temperatures but still enough water about (usually!) for growth and life. Autumnal temperatures are good too, but things are often still dead from the summer dry.
Winter is a little cold and gray.
Summer is just too damn hot, although around dusk and moonlit summer nights totally rock.

In Japan, winter is shitty cold and summer is shitty hot and the transitions are just too damn fast. Spring flower-viewing is lovely, as are the autumn leaves.

Oh wow, what a stunning sky!

I'd like to see this poll taken again in April. I think a number of people are subconciously biased because the question was asked just as Fall has been relieving them of the nastiness of summer.

Not me.
Spring is so damned muddy. I never got what the poets saw in it.
Also I have always loved decaying grandeur, and that is what Autumn is to me.

I'll try to remember to post another poll next year, see who the turncoats are

I love summer because you can do whatever you like outside and you don't need a jumper (sweater). It's the season of minimal clothing actually which is good on so many levels, the least of which is less washing.

That's it! that is exactly what autumn is. Well put SG.

Do you think that if you asked again in the dead of winter, like February after a few hundred blizzards, you might get more answers of Spring?

I love Fall, we've had a gorgeous one this year, and it is my first one living on the river which has been beautiful. I like Spring because Winter is over.

I love thunderstorms, so that's good about summer. However, I used to say summer was my favorite season but with having put on some weight and the sneaking suspicions of perimenopause, I can't take the extreme heat anymore! Maybe next summer.
