Summer!

Every year’s the same.  I welcome Memorial Day and the arrival of summer.  More daylight.  No school.  Vacations.  Warm days and July-August San Francisco fog.  Baseball every day.  Welcome to summer.

And then, in a blink of an eye, it’s Labor Day and summer is on the way out.  The change is slow but inexorable.  Shorter days, cooler, and winter is coming.  Where did summer go?  It seems like Memorial Day was just yesterday.

It’s not all bad of course.  A change of seasons has its charm.  Fall colors are beautiful.  But still, the arrival of summer is a special event.  And then, before I realize it, it is gone.  And I tell myself I should have paid more attention while it was here.

Every year’s the same!
