nawh - other shoe for me
I like our 4 seasons even if the largest is summer. The daffodils have already sprouted in my yard. Which means the violets and trillium are due anytime now. Which will be followed by Jack-in-the-Pulpit's. And then the tree's bud out drawing nown the water table when coupled with lessening rain and the whitewater creeks disappear. Best boating and best time to be on the water around here is December to March. Then the road trips really begin. (correction: violets are now up everywhere!)
What are you... an old softy?
eta: Lost my Dad this week. Which is good thing. He made it a couple decades past any of the other men on his side and it'd been a long time since seeing him truly happy. So it's been sort of nice seeing everything regenerating and beginning anew. Hard man, world would be better if we were all a bit more like these old timers. Meaning he always gave more than he took (if any at all).

Sorry to hear about your father's passing. I'll raise a glass in honor of the ol' timer.
I'm digging the weather, because this weekend I'm tucked away in the N GA mountains, in front of the fire, or in the hot tub with the Mrs (pics on reddit).
We brought everything, so we don't have to leave at all. No kids + delicious food, beer, wine, bourbon + awesome house & hot tub + views obscured for fog + smoking hot wife = WINNING thread.

Sorry to hear about your dad man. That sucks. :(
I dont know that I am a softy. I still fish in the rain in the low 30's 8 hours at times. I do fine when Im out there. I just dont recover as well as I once did. I think I just love sunny hot weather so everything else sucks. The Georgia winters are necessarily cold, its just wet every single day which makes is worse...
I can dig pretty good. Id just rather not do that for what life i have left. Dry and the warm sun on my back sounds pretty good
