Typically, September starts Summery with a tinge of Fall and ends Autumnally with just a faint echo of Summer. Last week, the first full week of September, started off way too close to frosty than dewy. There was a notable lack of sun and plenty of misty rain, too. It got better, but the sticky cool that is Fall has stained our minds and jackets and that doesn't come out easily.
Conversely, the ski show dock at Water's Edge came out surprisingly easily.
Overheard on the side of Potawatomi Trail;
Bambi, "So, you wait until the last second, then you jump out in front of it."
Thumper, "And you're sure I won't get hurt?"
Bambi, "Nah, you'll be fine. Plus the look on their faces is hilarious!"
So far, September has clearly not been Fall-icly challenged. There has been no shortage of cool and gray. That seems to be changing. Temperatures are expected to push back up and clouds and rain will be noted by their absence. Swimmers and skiers should only be a light shade of blue and that should blend nicely with the coming reds, oranges, and yellows of the maples.
