    Are we talking seasons, or seasons? Assuming the latter, my tier list of the midwest’s seasons:

    S - Christmas, Halloween, and apple cider seasons
    A - Baseball and Hockey seasons, blueberry season
    B - Deer and fishing seasons
    C - College football season
    D - Tornado season
    F - Construction season

        What a myopic point of view, they’re missing out on the fun of leaving construction cones and tools buried untouched under snow for 4 months so unsuspecting motorists can fuck up their tires. I guess Michigan has the art of corrupt road construction contracts perfected to an art, though, and not everybody can do that as well.

    The seasons I know are:

    • Winter
    • Fool’s Spring
    • Second Winter
    • Spring of Deception
    • Third Winter
    • Mud Season
    • Actual Spring
    • Summer
    • False Fall
    • Second Summer (1 week)
    • Actual Fall

    My favorite is probably one of the winter seasons. I like the cold. :)

    Actual fall is the best. The sweet spot seems to be mid-Sept to end of October. You got football going and nice weather.

    Autumn - fall colors are the best time of year for me.

    2nd - spring knowing that the snow will be melting and the flowers will soon be blooming

    3rd - winter as I prefer colder weather to hotter

    4th - summer

    Late summer to early fall is the best time, basically August-mid November.

    Spring: lots of rain, trails closed due to mud, cold and wet, starting the garden.

    Summer: haht, trails are open, the lake warms up, paddleboarding, exterior house projects

    Fall: cooling off, dry, leaves change, trails still open, less daylight, using the fire pit.

    Winter: snowboarding, snowshoeing, fat biking. Lots of shoveling and snow blowing.

    Spring is the worst. Summer and winter have lots of fun but also lots of work. Fall is pretty chill. All that said, winter is probably my favorite.
