Labor Day and summers end..What summer?

Wow! Labor day weekend is already upon us. But there seems to be something wrong this year....wait, I know! We never had SUMMER! Well, ok, so I'm speaking of "we" in the sense of we here in Minnesota. Now I won't even go into what my relatives in California say. Er-hum.

I had a brain fart the other day (well, for those of you who personally know me, this isn't an unusual occurrence, but still...), it was one of those rare days outside. You know, sun, low humidity and not too hot. and guess what entered my mind? (why, do tell us, Ms. Lady), so I shall... I thought "I'm so glad summer is finally here". Of course I immediately became aware of the fact that summer was LEAVING us. What? We had three days of sun, low humidity and temps and now it is downhill? WAHHHHH.................................(that's me whining)

My only hope is that we can have the temps we are having now, by which I mean, in the 60-70's, at least until Christmas....don't we deserve it?

Maybe to my fellow Minnesotans I'm sounding punch drunk in saying that...I suppose it is my California psyche that will always be in denial that we must endure the cold, and snow, for so long. Pooh!
