At least if you live in a place that isn't on fire or cooking to death for its entire duration
I just like seeing trees

i am in one of those increasingly uninhabitable during summer places. but i also love green trees, hate the winter.
even autumn makes me sad because winter is coming. spring is the best, because longest time until winter!!
not looking forward to only seeing nature from inside, short bursts into 95F/85% and from my car window
but i found some hiking locations within a half days drive at significant altitude so all hope isn't lost! high enough that it never goes above 70F
(pics look very far north compared to where i am)
I've noticed myself getting sadder when the end of summer approaches as I get older. Feels shorter every year
Hell, it's already less than a week until summer solstice and then it's going to start getting darker again
Actually, sunlight is a big component of why summer is so important to people in the north. You go from the sky being pitch black after 3 PM at around Christmas to the Sun never quite fully setting around Midsummer
maybe through some wizardry we can get cool summers/mild winters combined with subtropical summertime light levels
honestly living at high altitude near the equator is the closest thing to that
I actually don't mind snowy winters either, it's the seesawing between above and below freezing that makes things icy, slippery and shitty
i agree! i like snow but where im at now winters are just slimey, dreary, dead trees everywhere and barely below freezing. so like your seesaw but even shittier
so we just need like 9 months of springlike conditions with 3 of gently blanketing snow when we build our continent
