I don't know how it's been where you live, but we've had an extendo summer here.

It's been warmer and sunnier for....ever it seems and I've loved that a lot.

But it's certainly starting to be Fall now.  Autumn.  As I've mentioned, the days are getting shorter.  And some of them have a certain crispness to them.

The trees are starting to shed a few leaves, or needles, and some of them are tinged at the edges with brown or orange or something just not quite green.

Jason and I went for a drive/hike last weekend and it was gorgeous.  Sunny, warm enough for shorts, still summer by any stretch of the imagination, even in the middle of the forests, or in the always freezing rivers.

The seasons do tend to change more gradually here than in other parts of the world.  We're west coasters after all...we tend to be a bit mellower all round.  But this has been a lovely Summer, and I'm happy she decided to stick around to the very end of the party.

We've had a cooler than normal summer here in Ontario...only 2 or 3 days above 30. This week has been perfect...sunny and mid-20's. The leaves are changing, the nights are getting cooler, and we can only get nine holes in after work now.

Where did the summer go?

Love the weather we've been having, even if I'm sure it's just a harbinger of the coming weather apocalypse.
