I live in Missouri and I'm glad I live someplace that has seasons.  As far as winter, it can stop right after Christmas.

Hehehe....agreed! By January 2nd, I'm going 'ok great, Christmas and New Years are over...how many days til sprint?'

To answer the OP. The only thing I like about winter is that I don't have to worry about snakes when I go out. Truly. Now fall, I do enjoy the crispness in the air.

Honestly, I LOVE spring and summer. I grew up in Southern California so heat was never an issue for me and I love seeing all the flowers blooming, everything getting green, and babies frolicking in pastures. BUT, in fall/winter time I also love the excitement of the NFR coming close, all the bugs are dead/dying, and I can ride in the middle of the day without getting a heat stroke lol.
Miss anything in fall/winter?

I live in SoCal and I don't like the summer at all but for the LOOOONG days. I love our short fall and everything about it except the Santa Anas and the risk of wildfires and the fact that the days get shorter.

I'm sure that if I lived elsewhere I would change my tune, but until we move to Texas or Wyoming or somewhere...I'm a fall/winter lover (and yes I also get excited for NFR as that's when I take my vacation to be there.)

I love Fall. Warm days and cool nights, but enough daylight to ride after work.

Hmmmm lol there are several likes and dislikes. Dislikes for spring and summer: it can get scorching, allergies (mine have been horrible this year), horseflies and mosquito's. Likes: lake time, days are longer, I like to ride in the evening so it helps, seeing all the babies born. From little birds to calves and horses. My favorite season is fall. I love the crisp air and how my horses turn that pretty darker shade before they get fuzzy. I also like how its not so bad that I have white legs and don't have to show them off ;)

I love every season for different reasons but I HATE hot weather. Once it hits 80 I am not a happy camper. So I always look forward to the more temperate fall weather, leaves changing, Halloween (and anticipation of the rest of the holidays). Fall is my favorite season.

I'm with you Cavy, The other day is was 70, sunshine and a light breeze and it was PERFECT! I was out planting my garden in my bathing suit. :o)

Not big fan of summer or winter. Too hot and too cold. A nice Fall is perfect, or would be if we could only get the long days with it. Warm days, cool nights, NO BUGS,....lovely riding conditions. Now a wet, soggy Fall sucks.

All in all, my favorite time of the year.

 I love summer and fall. Winter not so much. The best thing about winter is there are no flies. Spring is too crazy, hot, cold, wind, rain, sometimes in the same day. I don't know how people handle living in rainy areas. Most of our rain comes in the spring. Ugh.

Heat didn't used to bother me, not one bit. I used to be a total summer baby that ate up the 90 plus degree weather and MO humidity. I loved it!

This year, heading into my third trimester, and for the first time in my life, I'm looking forward to fall and cooler temps.
