In my current location there isn't a distinct Fall season. When I lived in the Eastern USA, Fall often put me in a quiet and melancholy mood. I read a lot.

In the winter, I go to bed earlier, drink more coffee, and eat more hot foods. All this has to do with the desire to be warm. Yet my house isn't cold and I live in a relatively warm climate - Southern NM.

Spring and Summer are my favorite seasons. I'm more likely to work outside in 95F temperatures that to work outside in mild winter termperatures of 55F. Of course at 95F, I don't want to work in the direct sun.

I'm living in New England (North Eastern US) - and the fall is marvelous. I walk 6 miles a day and much prefer 40F over 85F.
I do seem to slow down during the deep winter. I usually have a 4 pound weight gain during January and February.
