SAYING GOODBYE TO SUMMER



How did that happen?

How did the last 3 months go so quickly?

I realize that technically, September 22nd is the official end of Summer, but here are a few things that let us know we are changing seasons:

  • The daylight is getting shorter
    • One of my least favorite things about moving into Fall and then into Winter.  I like the long days.
  • The activity and sounds of the neighborhood aren't as much anymore
  • School has started
    • We just sent our youngest off to finish his Senior Year in college.  Classes start tomorrow
    • In our area, the elementary and secondary schools have started
  • Friday Night Lights are underway
    • Yesterday marked the first Friday of High School Football in our area
  • College Football is underway
    • Turned on the TV this afternoon to find College Football on
    • The Huskers first game is in 7 days!
  • Labor Day is in 8 days
    • To me, this is the end of Summer
  • NFL Football is right around the corner
  • The nights are beginning to be cooler
It's been a good 3 months of grilling (actually that is a 4 season activity!); sitting on the porch; storms; sounds of the neighborhood kids playing; fireworks; walking the dog; running in the cool of the day; baseball; golf; moves; and many other activities.

Summer, I'm going to take in this year's memories over the next week as we say goodbye for now and we welcome in the FALL!

Now.....ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL?!
