It was still quite early, and the colest morning that i think i ever was abroad in- a chill that pierced into the marrow. the sky was bright and cloudless overhead, and the tops of the trees shone rosily in the sun. But where Silver stood with his lirutenant, all was still in shadow, and they waded knee deep in a low white vapour that had crawled during the night out of the morass. The chill and the vapour taken toghther told a poor tale of the island. it was plainly a damp, a feverish, unhealthy spot. "Keep indoors, men" said the captain. "ten to one this is a trick" p.g. 113
i chose this passage because it reminded me and my friends in the summer. although its a hard comparison i thought of myself waking up in the summer and then having ym friends coming over for breakfast poolside, and talking evry seriously such as the captain, and we kept indoors for the sun. Slightly different things, but it reminded me of summer. what did it remidn you guys of?

this reminds me of winter, when its the coldest time of the year, and people want to stay indoors because it's too cold to do anything outside. Theres usually powerful winds during the winter.

This setting actually reminded me of spring. This is so because although chilly, it was also sunny outside and this really did remind me of spring weather, unpredictable. Not only that, but the skys were clear telling me that the weather must have been nice even if it was chilly.
