    For Colorado, anytime of the year depending on what you like to do. We are definitely an outdoors state, so summer for hiking(mountains)and water sports and winter for snow sports. Given that, my favorite time of the year in Colorado is fall. The days are still warm, the nights are cool, and the contrast of the changing aspens and bushes against the clear blue sky is magnificent!!

    I have two:

    Georgia in the springtime, especially around Atlanta, because there's nothing more beautiful with all the dogwoods and azaleas blooming.

    Minnesota in the early fall because it's just the right amount of cool (most times) and the fall colors are beautiful.

    Thankfully, I'm blessed to have the best of two worlds!

    I think spring in Oregon is beautiful, but usually rainy. Summer is beautiful (except this year we really haven't started yet.) And fall if gorgeous. Warm days and cool nights with all the plants and trees changing color!! Winter is usually rainy and gray!! But I love living here in the "garden of eden." :P

    Minnesota! Anytime - because the season can change at the drop of a hat!!!!!!!!!! We have had 73 degrees in January already!

    Only thing, though! You have to enjoy every day because you don't know what is coming tomorrow~!!!!! And then you enjoy that, too!

    Don't talk to Minnesotans about global warming or the polar ice cap - Been there - done that! Edie

    Colorado is nearly always beautiful somewhere. I'd pick the mountains in the Spring and Fall for the flowers and the Aspen leaves,
