What is Your Season?
We all have our favorites. It is what makes us who we are. Which season is the one that rejuvenates your soul, makes you smile and gives you reason to smile? For me it would be fall. There is something about the changing of temps, the rustling of leaves, the changing colors and the promise for a winter. I remember as a kid, stepping off of the school bus, walking into the house and Mom had every window open. It was a cleansing of the dust and heat from the summer, the smell of the crisp air and the hope for cooler days that always made me happy.
The last ten years Texas has not had much of a winter, which I have missed. We are either freezing balls for 5 days with sleet and strong north winds, or it is 80 degrees. I miss having seasons and in my search for new beginnings, I want a winter! Granted, I will most likely be bundled up when it is 50 degrees and beautiful, but I look forward to experiencing the beauty in the changes ahead.
Please share with me, your favorite season and why.

The color and aroma where so intoxicating. some time even today, when I need a lifted , I close my eyes and thing about it.

That is a beautiful memory! Thank you for sharing with us. It is truly amazing what brings back good thoughts and how sometimes those get us through the tough days.

As you stated, Texas has two seasons Summer, When the day time highs are 90 and above, and not quite Summer, when the highs stay in the 80’s or below. I tend to like not quite Summer. It happens around the time of my birthday. In the past I have been known to go swimming, attend an annual birthday party, and have a picnic in January.
