    Travewrse City, Michigan (Northern--west side)
    Cherry Trees in bloom on the Old Mission Penninsula in May.
    The National Cherry Festival held the first of July for a week. Lot of activity--two weeks later Michael Moore's film festival.
    Fall colors late September early Oct. Too darn much snow in the winter unless you ski

    Hands down, absolutely, it's early October when the leaves are magnificent in Connecticut!

    Arizona - when it's snowing where you live! That's why I'm in AZ in the winter.

    I would say in the fall as the weather is cooler. However we are in hurricane season from June 1 to Nov 1

    Well I would say in the Spring, but low and behold NC forgot to have Spring this year. Fall is great also. Hope we have one of those?! :lol:

    the best time of year in Colorado depends on your interests; .... wait; anytime is the best time! We only get a couple really bad weeks weeks of weather a year, it's not uncommon for it to be 50-60 degrees and sunny in January . :)

    Visit wonderful West Virginia when the things you like best are in season. Raft or kayak the whitewater in spring, go fishing, enjoy fairs and festivals and train rides summer into fall. Stay for the autumn beauty as the color changes begin on the mountain tops and spill down into the lowlands. See the spring and fall bird migrations on the ridges . Come ski and board and tube. Arts and crafts both fine and folksy the year-round. Enjoy Forest Festival, Buckwheat Festival, Ramp & Rails Fest, musical gatherings, Vandalia and Augusta, Strawberry and Italian Fests. Google us and com'on down.
