It felt cool this morning and that was a gift. The ground and plants were still wet. It had rained last night. There had been too many hot days and before I know it they will be gone. Summer is winding down: soon Labor day will be here and the kids will be back to school. Today I will enjoy the weather exactly how it is and when it changes again I will not dismay. Every day is perfect and the greatest gift is today. Somehow this year I missed picking the wild blackberries but there is a frozen pie to remind us of all the raspberries I picked. Every season has its own gift.

Fall is about six weeks away. The temperatures are high but not as unbelievable high as they were a few weeks ago. I even saw two flocks of small blackbirds. They usually come through the area two times a year–fall and spring.
There was the feeling summer was going to turn into fall. I was enjoying the lower temperatures although I knew they would go up again.
Anyway, there was the distinct feeling summer was winding down. I picked my first cherry tomato yesterday. Summer was on its way out.
