In 52 questions tradition section the last four questions ask what do you look forward to each season, what are the seasonal foods? places? hobbies? and so forth.
I'm sure I could go into more detail but this is what I have thought of so far:
Summer – enjoyed pool workouts for the first five years I was here. The last two years have been more crowded for my taste. I do enjoy outdoor picnics and barbeques. I like being in the shade. It’s hot in Utah and equally hot in Oregon. I don’t recall having fire season each year in Salt Lake. There were parades and activities all summer long in Utah. I don’t recall any of them being as hot as Summerfest. I enjoyed taking the kids to the park for free lunch. Seems a thing of the past. I prefer Utah summers to Oregon summers overall.
Winter – I like the winters in Oregon better than Utah winters where the snow and cold seem to make the season longer. And the darkness. Winters are always dark. I look forward to the lights and decorations and music of Christmas. I enjoyed sledding and tobogganing in my youth. I like having green grass in Oregon. I like Oregon’s moisture as opposed to Salt Lake’s dryness.
Spring – I like seeing blossoms on trees and daffodils. Earlier I had said that Marigolds were my favorite flower but I think I prefer daffodils. Irises are quite pretty also. I have memories of ham and potato salad that my mom made each spring. I was always grateful that the end of the school year was approaching.
Fall - autumn leaves in brilliant colors, the coolness after summer heat, I don’t know that I really have any hobbies. I like apple cider and watching Jaime’s enthusiasm as it nears Halloween. No food stands out that I don’t have access to every other season
