    Default No more summer

    I am daydreaming of colorful leaves, cool crisp days, blue blue skies, moondances, and hot apple cider.

    Sigh.

    I've been waiting for autumn too. This summer was alright I guess but it was kind of 'bleh'. My neighborhood is about done gentrifying and we've got some things planned for the fall and the Red Wings just built a new arena and I have season tickets so I've got that to look forward to. Now all we need is a good team (fingers crossed).

    I love Fall too. It's my favorite time of year. After a long hot, humid, oppressive summer, those cooler, dry, crisp and clear, long sleeve shirt days are very, very welcome.

    Steelers are already in New Jersey!! They play the Giants this evening!!

    Barely any starters though, but it's football!!!

    No signs of yellowing leaves yet here, so you've still got some time.

    Ah yes, summer is indeed done.

    The Lady has started her School Activities, this week was "set up", next will bring the little darlings.

    In case you missed me, I spent the last three days in Pahokee with the R/V. Wi-Fi was NOT as advertised so I was unable to chat.

    As for leaves turning colors, not here. IT'S HOT


    Every day I beat my previous record of consecutive days I've stayed alive.

    In California, we believe in the notion of Endless Summer.

    Well, the timing of this is pretty spooky. Yesterday the leaves along the river started turning yellow....

    Winter is coming, fast.
