If any season lasts too long, I get a little bored. I like the change the different seasons afford.

In new mexico I must say my favorite is winter. The heat and dryness makes me go insane! So I look forward to the cold and possibly a bit of snow.

I love the winters the most, up in the North of Idaho the snow last forever and winter activities are much better than summer activities, but fall I think is the best for smoking just cold enough not to die of heat stroke and not yet cold enough to freeze without a jacket.

I suppose there are things I love and hate about all the seasons. Especially the heat of summer here in Texas. Part of me wants to say winter is my favorite season, but then I think about fall... the transition from heat to cooler weather, the anticipation of the holidays to come, switching out the short sleeves for my jacket, the changing of the leaves on the trees, the smell of wood burning in fireplaces when the weather gets enough of a chill. How can you not love that time of year? :)

When I lived in the Northeast as a kid it was summer followed by winter. Summer was the best because we could play sports from sunrise to sunset. Winters were great because of skiing. When I was older I loved the fall, followed by summer.
Living here in Florida I like spring the best. We don't have a fall, it goes from summer to winter. Winters are also nice here, walking around in 75 degrees in mid January is pretty nice.

My favorite season is the Holiday Season: the season for giving, for seasons greetings. The end of October thought the first week of January is filled with the sounds, smells, tastes, sights, and feeling of my fondest memories and my greatest hopes for the future.
It's also the time of year I get a much needed 2 month break from teaching and I can smoke my pipes all day everyday!

I'm with the masses. Love me a good Fall season. (when I still have hope my football team will make the playoffs)
The freshness of Spring comes in second. If i could smoke when it was 30 below I wouldn't mind the South Dakota winter so much...
All in all i do enjoy living somewhere that has a distinct 4 seasons. Keeps everything new!

I like moderate temperatures so fall then spring. Fall is for hunting and starting to eat comfort food like stews and chili or clam chowder. I love filling my nose and lungs with that crisp cold air. Hockey season is starting, baseball is in the playoffs and Notre Dame is playing football. I love winter too. I like the cold much better. I do like summer but not like it is now it is so damn hot 100+ I can't hardly stand it. Going to the coast salmon fishing soon and the temp there is 40F cooler. YES!!!

If there was a place that Fall was the only season, I'd live there.
I love the crisp mornings, the warm days, the cool nights, and the color change. By the time Fall comes I'm ready for stews, soups, and meat that isn't BBQ'd. I can go camping without kids yelling all around me since they're in school. And most of all, it's not too hot to smoke a pipe.
Yep, Fall is the best.
I couldn't have said it better myself

I'll add another to the fall column. I feel much more comfortable in the cooler weather but also like being able to sit outside without 4 layers of clothes on. The smell of leaves and wood fires is amazing as well.

Love summer and the outdoor activities., but the colder weather of winter is way better for pipe smoking.

Summertime...heat, sun and ripe tomatos...moroccan mint tea and a flake tobacco..

I live in an appartment building, and our small balcony is full of tomato plants and my wifes collection of extremely hot chillies. After two very bad summers, where the tomatos didn't ripe, I now pick what I need when I need it. Same with my mint. Plenty of fresh, plenty to give away and plenty to dry and store for later use. Wonderful!

I love fall around harvest time. Growing up on a farm it is when we had the most fun during the year, here in what used to be tobacco land. Now is the time of year, as a homebrewer that I get to play the most when coming up with a beer. Not sweating is always a plus.

For Irwinmetro - when I lived in Saskatchewan they used to talk about playing baseball in the summer - on both weekends!!!
I appreciate the varied aspects of all the seasons. I think though that I have to say Autumn is my favourite and for all of the reasons so eloquently listed in previous posts. "Along the line of smokey hills the crimson forest stands..."

I'm with flyguy, any season is great as long as it isn't too long. Here in MN it ends up being winter for 6 months, and the other four mashed into the final 6 (four meaning spring, summer, fall, road construction). If I was forced to pick, I guess it would be fall.

Fall for me, I love the smell in the air and the crisp mornings. I do not, however, appreciate what comes next.
