How many times have you heard that? I've been hearing it for weeks -- usually from the sun worshippers who have been waiting all year for summer to arrive. It seems that they're no sooner showing off their base tan before launching into woeful lamentations about Summer's end.These doomsayers need to be bludgeoned with the large, desktop version of the Audubon calendar in my humble opinion.
Maybe I'm old fashioned, but I'm still referencing the Gregorian calendar. It looks like roughly thirteen weeks between the Summer Solstice and the Autumnal Equinox and that means that Summer is barely half over -- or half begun.
So how about a little optimism? Another seven plus weeks of calendar Summer, followed by nice weather and, if we're lucky here in the Northeast, an Indian Summer to bring us well into the Fall.
There we are. It's mid-Summer. Buy more sunscreen because it's not nearly over yet.

Good to know. I see schools approach as the end of summer. So maybe I should just say lazy days are coming to an end. Ha. Thank you for making me realize summer isn't over, nor is the world since I'm going back to school.
