I love "Trail Camera Season"

Wow!!

This time of year is great for maintenance.

Of it weren't for bikinis, summertime would be worthless.

Have a lot to look forward to, deer season and football season.

We choose to live in Texas. so, we choose miserable summers. Summertime in Texas is a good time to be in Montana or Alaska.

Im with ya. I hate this time of the year. I have gotten pretty much everything done for deer season back in the spring time, so now its just check cards every two weeks and wait. I even had a dream about deer hunting last night. Way to early to start having those dreams.

I will get no sympathy from those of you who work outside - I sit behind a desk all day. However because of that, when I get home I like to spend as much time outside as possible. Less enjoyable when it is still over 90* right up to bedtime. Weekend afternoons are the worst - stuck in the house like it's Fargo, North Dakota in February. It's going to be hot through the weekend but looking for some relief next week. I always consider August 1st as the halfway point of the summer death march - we are almost there!

I love the long days of the summer, nothing more depressing than in winter when you go to work at night and come home at night. I love how I'm always surprised at how bearable camping can actually be in July. I love the lighter traffic in Houston when school's out. I love getting up early to fish, coming home and taking a nap, then waking back up again in time for lunch. I love listening to Paradise City while drinking my 5th beer in my floaty in the pool. I love crab and shrimp boils, and I love the way the AC feels when you come back inside after mowing the grass. I love listening to Texans' fans pitiful hope for a better season on sports radio...and listening to it crumble game by game in the first few weeks.

I hate the heat of summer but love the longer days.

I literally get depressed in the summer....not like balled up in a corner of the house depressed...but just sluggish...and lack of ambition. Skip more workouts, don't wanna do much....

but I will say...this summer hasn't been TOO bad...last weekend was gorgeous...and I can't remember the last time I've said that in July.

It used to not bother me to be in the heat. When i hit around 50 I just can't take it physically or mentally like I did at a younger age.
I am from semi west Texas Abilene. The dry heat in West Texas in the evenings with a breeze even if it's 90-95 is way easier to take than anything East of say Ft Worth where you can cut the humidity with a knife and shoot skeeters with a 410. I haven't spent much time in deep Southeast Texas but from what I ve heard it's unbearable this time of year.
Come on September!!

Agree 110%, if I had my way it would be highs in the 60s lows in the 40s, football and hunting year round. This time of year makes me enjoy the other that much more

Man, I never realized there was so much summer hate! I love it. Between baseball, long sunlight hours, fishing, and the light Houston traffic....I can't get enough summer!

love the Fargo comparison.....so so true. A/C is your friend.

I'm with ya on this, ready for camp fires, cold morning hunts, and football midday!

x100!

You're right about the traffic in Houston being much lighter... It's SO nice!
