he’s talking about June in the 1980s, I presume?

Last month was the hottest May on record in S.Florida.

June is a temptress.

If this isn’t hot, what the heck is July and August going to be like. It was 105 today….

I don’t think children in New Delhi would agree. 126.1F four days ago.

Just go trick or treating in June…problem solved.

I like May the best, but June is pretty close.

and those Christmas presents in December are no fun.

Suns and skies and clouds of June,

And flowers of June together,

Ye cannot rival for one hour

October’s bright blue weather.

I like June. My flowers come out, and it looks like I won’t be moving for at least another six months, so I’ll get to enjoy them.

You should have been more specific and said weather-wise, October knows it can’t compete.

I agree… for about 2 weeks of June at most

Forget Christmas!!

In Michigan, July was the best month. Not so in Arizona where there’s the specter of “monsoon.” I learned after the first year living here to schedule my summer time off in May and June instead of June and July as I did in Michigan. July is Arizona’s counterpart to Michigan’s August – unpredictable with too much of a chance of crappy weather.

June has to beat October when you’re a school kid, because of summer vacation. (In the Northern Temperate Zone, I mean.) Having aged far beyond that point, and too enfeebled to be called on any more to cut grass or rake leaves or shovel snow, I’d pick October over June even if it weren’t for Halloween. Fall colors, cooler temperatures, lower humidity, fewer allergens, fewer insects. Yay!

June is the best month. I’m very proud of this month.

Adam, how could you????!!!!!

You’re the worst dad ever!

Way to spoil your son’s genuine feeling of optimism.

I like winter months, especially if it snows. If it snows we stay in the house. I get work done – housework, work-work, work for the 2 non-profits I am on the board of… If it is not snowing – though in the past years most times it rains he has us stay in also – he wants to go out (and waste my time). We are paying an annual fee for snow clearance, so it doesn’t cost more if it snows more.

The Great Pumpkin will pass you by for that remark!
