 Can You Hear Me Now?
  
Location: When you hit the middle of nowhere .. Keep driving | I have seen Halloween decorations locally at stores since the end of July and it's bugged me to no end... Today however, I saw my first set of Christmas decorations... and our local winter carnival has started to promote their fundraisers... it's not until the end of February. I am so not ready for fall or 6 months of winter! We still had snow in the middle of May.     I always get in the moving mood around this time of year... I love my farm but hate the location and have been looking at for sale ads all day. |

Location: In the Hills of Texas | Some stores like Walmart, are doing that so people can put them on layaway since they don't have the money to buy them upfront. Gives them plenty of time to get them paid for.. (Sarcastic serious) |

I am glad for layaway. I have used it a couple of times. |

Location: North Dakota | I will probably be the only one, but I'm SO GLAD summer is nearing an end! I absolutely hate hate HATE any weather above 80 degrees. I love fall, I love snow, Autumn and Winter are my favorite seasons! Halloween closely follows Christmas in terms of my favorite holidays, and I start celebrating Oct 1-Jan 1. I'm not even bummed about the cold this year because my horse will be in the nice heated barn at night so when I get to the barn after work he'll be in his stall, then we ride in the heated indoor (which is attached), then I can put him back in his stall and not worry about him getting a horrible chill if I don't hand walk him for 2 hours after a ride. The only time I have to go outside is going to/from the truck and filling hay nets! |

| cavyrunsbarrels - you are NOT the only one. We must have been separated at birth. I hate the heat. I hate the summer. I hate the beach. I hate a $400 electric bill to keep the house at 74 through the summer. I love fall/winter, snow, leaves, halloween, thanksgiving. I love snuggling in to warm up. I love burning wood fires. i love everything pumpkin. I love christmas shows, halloween/scary movies, and the classic Hocus Pocus! The ONLY, one single solitary thing I like about summer, is the longer daylight hours. That's it. |

No sister!! You are not alone!!!! Fall is my favorite season. But I do love me some snow!!! I want to move north where they have more snow. I have trouble with bitter cold though. 25 degrees and snowing is perfect. -40 wind chills not so much. But I hate heat and humidity. I live in MO where we get lots of it. |

Hahaha! I love the 80-90* weather! I don't even have an air conditioner in my house. Lately, it's been in the 90*s and I sit in my office with a heater and blanket on my legs because the guys crank up the AC :(
Unfortunately, summers are way too short and I spent most of my $$$ trying to keep the house warm enough in the winter  |

Location: In The Snow, AZ | I guess it would all depend on location. For those that have 115* heat in the summer and 60* winters... I could imagine that winter is nice to see. For us who have 75-80* summers and -20* windchills with several feet of snow, overtop of ice.... Winter is not as enjoyable. |

YES! That is me 100%! Haha I hate the beach too! I lived a block away from Lake Michigan for 3 years and swam in it maybe twice? I do not LIke it at all. The only bad thing about fall/winter is EVERYONE constantly whining about it. That and when it gets SO bitterly cold that I have to stuff hand warmers down my pants do my legs don't freeze while I'm filling hay nets and stuff at night.
