Summer's last hurrah
The last couple of days have been glorious, hot, late summer days.
It may be early to be saying it, but I know from living here and in Minnesota that change comes early up at these latitudes. Yesterday it was 90 degrees and humid -- tomorrow and Sunday it is supposed to be clear with highs only in the 60s, and lows in the 40s. And next week is supposed to be cooler as well.
It may get warm again. But it makes me glad that the other day after market, I went for a splunk in our little stream, and then lay down on the bank, under the cedar trees, and watched the clouds go by for about 20 minutes, as a gentle breeze blew.
Even though we have a lot to do around here, you need to grab a little summer while you can.
Hey everybody, take the day off today and go for a swim!!
