For the past few months, we've heard about our neighbors to the north struggling with great snowstorms and bone chilling temperatures. It serves as a reminder of just how different our seasons are here in Southwest Florida.  Although we lack what many would identify as typical markers of the changing seasons, News-Press storyteller Amy Bennett Williams notes that here in the subtropics, the flora and fauna provide their own signs of the season.  As she tells us in this week's encore essay, Williams has come to and relish them all; just don't ask her which season is her favorite.
