You stop cutting wood when you stop breathing. Until then its non stop. I've told my
wife many times I'm done for the year. Then I see wood waiting for a new home
and I can't pass it up.

Huh???? Thats the best time there is, in my opinion. Thats when you can really get down to work without the sweat dripping in your eyes. I love a nice, crisp, calm, 20 degree, clear winter day. Gets the blood pumping. I'll be down to a sweat shirt and loving it.

when there's snow on the ground in the summer

Oh sweet, I am reminded of one sultry model whos last words to me were "When hell freezes over" I think its time to collect boys.
 
Feb 1-April 15th and the month of October is when I normally do all of my wood gathering and processing. Time when the temperatures are cold enough to do some work and doesn't impede with my other outdoor hobbies.

I could not imagine being out there in anything colder than 40* or so.

Echo that....nothing better than providing amusement to the neighbors while outside in freezing temps in a worn out t-shirt & torn jeans splitting w/ a maul. Although in all seriousness, I dont generally use my chainsaw if Im standing in snow for safety reasons.
