Re: what is so bad about summer?
Yes everyone loves spring, hence "spring fever". But for me since I live in minnesota, summer is a blessing. Means no more snow and having to drive an hour and a half to work because of the traffic due to the bad weather. No more getting up early to clean the snow off my car. Spring and summer is like a field trip that last a few months. DRiving with the windows down, feeling the spring air on my face. Summer may need the air conditioner but still tans, the beach. Not feeling like you have to wear everything in your closet to keep warm. I say GOODBYE winter, hello SUMMER !

I enjoyed summer too, when I lived in cooler climates (Lake Erie shore and Germany). If I lived in Minnesota, I'd feel exactly as you do.Down here in the South, summer is something to be endured, not enjoyed. NOBODY ever moved to this part of the country of their own free will before A/C.

LOL I dont know where you are from, but I have a aunt who lives in Texas. I used to visit her alot before I had kids. I also have a uncle who lives in Florida. I used to go there every other year with my mom before I got married. I liked going there for vaction but it was to hot to live. But then again, Minnesota is to cold... it is a lose lose situation.
