Well, autumn is officially here. I know that it is the favorite season of many people because of Halloween, the changing colors of the leaves in some places, the kids going back to school for some parents etc. For me, not so much. But that’s the way it is. Hopefully, we’ll have what used to be called “Indian summer” that must be called something more appropriate now that means a short stretch of hot weather. I want to go to the beach and go swimming once before it snows!!
