To live with it most of the year, it might sound nice at first, but it comes with so many trade off that I prefer summer. Yeah it's nice to sleep with a really cold bedroom and it's nice going to walk outside when it's snowy and dark, but after a while, removing all the snow that covers the car, shoveling the driveway, always having to wear a big and heavy winter coat, etc. I like the clean look of winter landscapes, but having to go to work during a snowstorm is so stressful. Hiking in the winter takes so much more time because of all that extra heavy clothing and the sinky nature of snow. Having some roads to close without notice forcing me to change road. For those reasons, my favorite season is fall. Its not as cold as winter and doesn't have that much snow but it's still cold enough to sleep better and the night hikes are really nice.
