Season's Greetings: But Which One?

In this edition of This or That, I will write about what season is best and why it is.  Whether you just want to find out what's good about the season to come, or would like to get your thoughts straightened out your season preferences, read this, because that's what it's here for!  Dig right in and enjoy... :-)
Summer: the typical preferred season.  Quite personally, summer is my least favorite season.  It's not that I don't like it, but I find it too hot and too sunny and too humid, at least in the city.  Often my family goes to the country for the summer months, and I admit that is much more pleasant.  But, summer is camp season and is school-less.  Often it enables endless possibilities that are not possible in the other (better) three seasons.
My favorite season is fall.  It includes my birthday, Thanksgiving, beautiful falling leaves of different colors, Halloween (candy!), and, unfortunately (but not technically!) back-to-school danger area.  If you look at dates and not unofficial start and endings, most schools reopen in summer, at the very end.  However, if you consider Labor Day the end of fun-season (summer) school does become revived in autumn.  Other than that, and the fact that stuff gets blown into your eyes during the fall (or if you don't like turkey, there's Thanksgiving) autumn is pleasant in weather, holidays, and happenings.
Winter.  The season of cold, the hated season.  The season of heaters in New York City apartments.  But, also, the season of sledding and skiing and snowboarding.  The season of heavy overcoats and turtleneck shirts.  If you like the cold, make winter your favorite season.  I consider the cold better than the hot of summer because if it's cold out you can put on five layers of clothes and get away with it, but if it's hot out there's nothing you can do about it.  Also, if you like winter sports, winter can be a season to look forward too, but not necessarily your favorite.
And, last but not least, spring, the allergy season!  Spring is full of flowers and is a good omen: the omen of summer!  If you're allergic to pollen, spring can be a season of suffering, but it pays off in the form of fabulous multi-colored flowers.  Mild weather and lots of rain make this season complete, but with it you can tell what kind of summer you need to prepare for.  Spring is a nice season, but not for all!
No matter which season you choose to be your favorite, or which you prefer over another, I hope This or That has had another successful post on something that matters to you.  I don't know about you, but I'm looking forward to fall!
