So Long Summer, See Ya in 2 Months!

I will not miss summer one bit! I am ready for cool to cold weather!

Will you be driving or flying to FLA this time? If you're driving, honk when you pass through Smithfield, NC and think of me just 20 minutes down Hwy 70.

I would love to be there rafting with them. It is so much fun! While I don't like when it is very very hot and humid, it is preferable to the cold freezing weather which will upon us very soon. Have fun in Florida. So, are you now a permanent resident of Florida?

I do not like winter, but I also dislike summer, mid-seasons are my favorite and I am so happy that Autumn is coming.

I'm so excited for Autumn, I am so over the heat here. It was a very hot summer for us.

That's a very nice way to spend some time . And you'll meet summer again in two months! You are so lucky, I'm jealous . Here the days are getting colder and colder, I was even wondering if I should start the heater . But we expect a big drop in temperatures next week, so I'll have to do it eventually. Have fun! See you later .

I love spring and summer. Happily, in my part of the planet winter just went away. Today we have a beautiful weather.

Love the photo! Yes, you have lovely Florida to look forward to, Dianne.

@DianneN - We used to go river rafting when we were young. It is so much fun! It will be pleasant here in Southern California most of the year. There is generally only a 10 to 15 degree difference between summer and winter. I have become such a wimp since we moved to California that I don't go horseback riding if the low for the day is below 50 degrees! LOL Enjoy your six months and one day in Florida. Isn't that longer than you spent there last year?

They don't sit still for any length of time. Ah yes, summer is over. YEA!!! Now the best season of the year begins - winter warm-up. Probably an oxymoron there, but Winter needs to get ready and what better way than to have fall bring the temps down and brighten up the landscape with those wondrous fall colors. Gotta love Fall for the diversity of color and temps. Winter is waiting in the wings to make her grand entrance with the first snowfall. I know when that happens you'll be on a beach, chatting with Orville, rocking it with cocktails with friends and neighbors, and lying around the pool. You have a tough life.

The sunshine state awaits you with open arms.

You never see much of winter - do you?

It amazes me how different the climates are between the northern and southern United States. I live in Atlantic Canada, pretty much in the same Time Zone as Florida, but weather wise, two very different seasons. Florida has 2 seasons...Summer and Hurricane. Enjoy your time in Florida.

What a happy summer photo. I am so glad to be done with summer. But still have the 80s hanging around. Ready for cool temps.

I did read about you making Florida your real home. Beware of that doctor (lol)

Why are you going to Florida for 6 months?

If you go to Disney World,it is the company policy to "get rid of" any wildlife they find on their premises.Most of the time they keep people from getting killed,but a few unfortunate incidents slip in. Also,if you are told to evacuate,do it! I hear homeless are actually forciblly put into shelters when hurricanes hit.

I love going tubing in the rivers here in north Florida during the summer! With it being so hot and muggy in Florida, the ice cold 72-degree spring water feels amazing!

In here its already rainy season and by November the cold season. Summer ended last June.

I like to try it once more, the last time was 15 years ago. Rainy season here just started, it will last until January next year.
