It's September. Yes, summer lasts three more weeks, but autumn is so close we can taste it in the cool evenings and crisp mornings. We started today off with a campfire for the first time in months -- and it was delightful. I couldn't be more thankful for this change in seasons, as the heat has been harder on us than we want to admit. I actually slept through the night several times this week -- something that rarely happened in the heat of summer.
