I saw the recently the folks over at Gallup asked Americans what their favorite months of the year are. As you might guess, February came in dead last, basically tied with January. April fell solidly in the middle, while the transition months of May and October came in first and second place.

Perhaps most surprising, especially to those currently suffering through late summer heat and humidity, is that August was only considered the fourth-worst month.

Here is what I am thinking, the bulk of the participants weren't from Maine because although I think February is right as last September or October or even July got a bum rap. So tell me and feel free to choose more than one if you are torn between two.
