Summer 2021 was odd, but we pretended it wasn’t. And now that Autumn is coming, we’re conflicted. But then, we’re human, so we feel that way every year (see quotes at the end). Summer 2021, we hardly knew you.

And On a More Thoughtful Note
“Summer’s lease hath all too short a date.”
~William Shakespeare
“How they dance in the courtyard, sweet summer sweat.
Some dance to remember, some dance to forget”
~The Eagles (Hotel California)
“August rain: the best of the summer gone, and the new fall not yet born. The odd uneven time.”
~Sylvia Plath
Even on the most beautiful days in the whole year – the days when summer is changing into autumn – the crickets spread the rumour of sadness and change.”
~E.B. White
“I have only to break into the tightness of a strawberry, and I see summer – its dust and lowering skies.”
~Toni Morrison

Oh, the memories. Summer vacation was my favorite thing, not my parent’s mind you, but definitely mine. I might have been a bit of a trouble maker…

Thanks, Mitch, for the entertaining memes and good thoughts.
I miss those long ago summer nights when I would sing my children to sleep the Ella Fitzgerald way:
Summertime and the living is easy
Fish are jumping and the cotton is high
Your daddy’s rich and your mama’s good-looking
So you just hush little baby, don’t you cry.

I like the bird one because it reminds me of the 5am howler monkeys in Costa Rica. They sound like they’re puking REALLY loud.

Thanks for all the summer memes. Summer is my least favorite season. I dread every moment other than the extra daylight. This makes me feel not so alone.

The old folks say that if there’s a lot of crickets in the late summer/fall it’ll be a cold winter. We have an abundance of crickets at the farm…

Those crickets must read the Farmer’s Almanac, Gregory. I understanding it’s predicting the same thing this year.
