    I absolutely HATE mosquitos.,.. I was outside just recently, and I was only out there for maybe about 15-20 minutes, and I'm all bit up... I thought it was too early for the little blood sucking pests... I'm all itchy and what not... I'm so stocking up on Cortizone this year! I think this will be a vicious year!

    I don't like summer very much. It's not the heat but the sun. It gives me terrible headaches - I once had a doctor tell me I am allergic to the sun (sunburn way too easily also). I get depressed if the sun shines too many days in a row.

    I live in So. Calif. I get so tired of blue sky, it is depressing.

    I hate the month of May cause it is so humid here. I love winter (as much as south texas has). Cold weather is better cause I can sleep with my windows open.

    I grew up in the midwest. Heat, humidity and mosquitoes. You can have it!!! A couple years ago we moved to Texas. I love it here.

    Summer - HUMIDITY
    Fall - Love it
    Winter - Icy Roads and Frigid temps
    Spring - TORNADOES

    But I love more about the different seasons than I hate.
    Summer - Blue skies, sunshine, white puffy clouds, oceans and beaches
    Fall - walking through the fallen leaves, the smell of campfires
    Winter - watching big wet falling snowflakes, hot cocoa, Christmas
    Spring - Colorful flowers popping their little heads up, first bird songs of the season, soft spring rains

    I could go on and on....the wonder of God's nature is awesome!

    My vote goes to humidity. Lived in Houston for 25 years and never got acclimated to it. Lubbock is great...hardly ever any humidity. Time spent in Austin not as pleasant, but not as bad as Houston.
