Unabashed

Yeah, I know it isn’t Autumn yet, but Saturday was noticably cooler than it has been, and the sun has crossed the ecliptic and is casting shadows now with just a little more slant than they have been, and the air just suddenly grabbed that crisp Autumn feel, if only for a day. It was still 89 degrees, but that’s cool compared to the 102 of a few days before. One thing’s for certain, the days are shrinking, slowly, and the nights are growing longer, and though there’s still lots of hot days left this summer, their numbers grow fewer every day. We’re just slightly more than a month away from the Autumnal Equinox, and I think I’m ready for this year’s long hot summer to finally be through.
