I love all the seasons to be honest.

Spring brings maple syrup, finishing off firewood for the season, preparing for summer projects.
Summer for enjoying the camp full-time (almost anyhow), canoeing, ATVing, fishing.
Fall brings hunting and......well fall is just awesome.

But winter, to me, is still the best: best time of the year to do firewood, skiing, snowshoeing, out on the sled, putting in new trails, sitting by the woodstove after a long day in the bush.
And best of all, no bugs.....



Cheers everyone

I used to feel the same way FW, I wish I could regain my winter mojo. I used to make fun of the people that would complain about winter around here "NW PA" now I've become one of the complainers  :-\.

Part of it for me is how little sun we get and it always seems to be gloomy here from November to April. The sun is out here today for the first time in what seems like weeks and I have a better attitude. The other part I am hating more and more is having to work out in it........ There doesn't seem to be enough clothes to put on to work outside in it anymore. I can see a day where I disappear south mid January till the end of March.

Each year we go to Florida for a week to escape the cold and it seems half the people I meet in Bradenton are from Ontario. A few more years, they are gonna have a Pennsylvanian to deal with as well  ;D
