Summer ends, and Autumn comes,
and he who would have it otherwise
would have high tide always
and a full moon every night.

If you think of summer weather as temperature above 80 degrees, in Seattle we had 55 hours and 23 minutes of summer this year. And over half (51%) came late, during the longest stretch of hot September weather in Seattle history. So it goes...we still have flowers but the garden is dry as dust and in need of a major tidy-up before rain arrives next week. Uninspiring work, but at least when it's done, it's done for the year. Vacation is over, Amanda and Nova leave tomorrow so the excuses are running out. Happy autumn!
