What is your favorite season of year? Why?

Each season offers something unique to like. Weather, temperature, animals and bugs, events, holidays, and more.

If I had to settle on one to be my favorite it would be Summer. Particularly around July.

Summer offers the most daylight hours and the best temperatures to be outdoors. (Depending on where you live, of course.) I love being able to stay outside clear until 11:00PM and still see the last vestiges of the setting sun. The evening and overnight temperatures make it comfortable to stay up even later, which is a double-edged sword because then there is less time until sunrise and sleeping in means missing that (unless you never went to bed.)

There are so many holidays, events, cookouts and parties to fill in all those daylight hours. I don’t drink alcohol much anymore (if at all) but I have plenty of fond memories sitting outside with friends drinking beer around the bonfire in the evening hours, too. Summer just has so much you can do!
