End of Summer

Well it seems as thought the highly unusual warm (sometimes hot!) weather we had here this summer has abruptly and unceremoniously come to an end. Summer is almost officially over and with that has come our other season, the rainy one. I think that it has rained every day now for two weeks straight. Real rain too, not drizzle. This last week we've even had some pretty significant thunderstorms. It's all fine with me since I don't mind the rain. I will, however, miss the sun. Our local star only seems to shine for about one to two months of the whole year. It's no wonder Van Gogh was so depressed!
