Well, today is September 1, the official start of the Ber months. These four months: September, October, November, December are my favourite months of the year. In actuality, I enjoy January too, but it's not quite a Ber month.
In the end, I like the Ber months because my favourite seasons are winter and autumn (in that order). Here in North Carolina, that doesn't mean much: the weather is always relatively warm and balmy, even in winter. But it's a respite, however slight, from the blazing heat of the sun, which is almost a constant in the South. Sure, it would be better if the Ber months were also the Brrrrr months; but here in the South that's a bit much to ask.
This summer has been brutal. We've broken a couple records: the heat went up past 100F any number of times in the last 6 weeks, we're on water restriction, and the grass is all dead.
Let the Ber months begin!

Has anyone ever told you that you should move back to Canada, pronto?
I agree! And if you move up north where we are, you'll have 6 months of the winter weather you like! Our leaves are already starting to yellow, and we've had frost warnings a few times this past week.
Bring it on!
Michelle, just so you know. The leaves hear are yellow and brown, too. So, is the grass. AND, the roses, and the marigolds, and . . .
I would start some chant or cheer to support the move, but that wouldn't be very polite.
