Nearing The End Of Summer

I was over by the municipal swimming pool today. Not too many were out swimming, since it's cooler than usual in August.

Everything feels like fall is coming on strong. I saw some leaves falling already. I even picked up a few. And some friends of mine had a handful of leaves from their neighborhood that looked so perfect that they looked plastic. But they were real.

I like catching the subtle whiff of autumn once in a while. It comes unpredictably. Like the whiff you get of spring when it's in the air too. Something about it tells your body something special has happened. But the glory of it doesn't last very long. So you have to enjoy it while you can.

Make a wish and make it a wish for more enjoyment of the seasons!
