Today, we’re doing another Favorite Things post, talking about our favorite season.
Anyone who knows me KNOWS it isn’t winter. I can’t tell you how happy I am to see the tail end of that season! The other seasons I don’t mind, but if hard-pressed to choose one, I’d pick summer. For several reasons.
One – I don’t like being cold. And living in Minnesota… *sigh* …it gets cold.
Two – Less running around. Oh, we’re still busy in the summer with camps and trips etc, but the day-to-day running is sooooo much less than in the school months. So there’s less of this….
…and more of this…
Okay, I may not be doing it up like drunk Ron Swanson, but in the summer, I definitely sleep better and have more energy.
Three – Believe it or not, I’m going to say camping trips. I know, it’s a shocker, but I do enjoy myself when camping. Time with my family – immediate and extended – is awesome, and I always fine some alone time to do what I love to do…
And to be honest, it’s the camping prep and set up (and then inevitible take down) is what I really hate about camping. The actual camping? I can get on board with that, and I can admit that it’s part of what makes summer my favorite season.
Four – WRITING RETREAT! A week on beautiful Lake Superior
Lots of writing happens, good food is eaten, lots of wine is consumed (by me anyway), I laugh so hard my face and belly hurt, and I get to be with some of the greatest ladies I know.
Head over and see what seasons the other ladies chose as their faves. 🙂

WRITING RETREAT!!! It’s one of my favorite things about summer. Possibly my favorite – other than not having to run kids to school.
I’d love to go on a writing retreat. Le sigh. Great post, my creepy love. I too love camping. I haven’t been in ages. I need to see if I can talk Mr Prince into going since it’s started to warm up.
Camping with you is awesome! So much fun. I loved the pic of the lake. So much beautiful.
I love the picture of the writers retreat! You guys are so cute!
I hear ya about running around. That’s why summer is my default fave right now, though autumn is really it, lol. But that means school, sigh. And yay, the retreat!
