DC's four seasons

I've now experienced each season here twice. I thought it seemed liked a good time to reflect on how I feel about them.

Fall
Fall is my favorite time of year. I love the cooling from the hot summers, the crisp air, the leaves, and lots of apples. I enjoy that I can take my dogs out for a run without them getting heat stroke. The dogs love that I can take them places in the truck with me.

Winter
Sucks. I've found nothing worth while. I live in a Valley and have a constant 30 mph wind (sometimes MUCH higher). It's cold, its dark, and the trees look dead.

Spring
In Seattle I never really noticed spring. Here I spend 2 months watching the trees bud. It's my first sign that the end of winter is in sight. I "will" the leaves to come, and enjoy a bit of thawing warmth. Of course we have the Cherry Blossoms, but I find the unraveling of green leaves just as exciting. We often have babies born around farm life as well. Spring bring lost of yard work/Farm work, and I really kinda like it.

Summer
The summer's are hot. They can be quite miserable, but I have found things to appreciate.
Food grown in the hot sun has much more flavor, then the crap we get in the Pacific Northwest. I love to pick a warm tomato off of the vine in my yard. I enjoy the warm nights, to sit out and watch the sun set.
