The Last Signs of Summer
Well, I know summer is coming to end. Why?
- Football season is starting! I am excited about watching some Ohio State and Cleveland Browns games, and some high school games as well. The high schools where I have taught/graduated from/will be teaching have all performed very well recently, so they provide some interesting games.
- School is starting Is it that time already? Sheesh!
- Halloween and Christmas items are out Yes, to the department stores, it is already Halloween (and even for some, Christmas). I actually don’t object too much to getting decorations out early. I am a big anticipator, and I am ready for autumn.
- Blackberry Picking Jennifer and I picked some fresh blackberries yesterday at a local farm. It was a fun experience, because I love getting out with Jennifer and I love eating blackberries! We must have eaten 20 each on the way home from the farm. That’s ok: they are loaded with good phytochemicals.

I love autumn, too. Waking up to crisp chilly mornings and then having the sun warm you…rustling leaves, coming to the end of Pentecost. Good luck with the new school year!
