In our time it is Labor Day rather than New Year's that marks the end and beginning of things. Can't remember when this started, but it is true nevertheless. So . . . goodbye to picnics and pool parties, flies and mosquitoes, fresh flowers and vegggies, baseball (thankfully), blaring car radios, yard sales, wicked thunderstorms, long lazy evenings, butterflies and lightning bugs, and people who say "There is nothing on TV." . . . hello to mums, cider and apple dumplings, football (thankfully), gingerbread, autumn foliage, flickering candles, ghosts and goblins, Thanksgiving and Christmas, and people who say "There is nothing on TV." . . . hope your holiday weekend was a safe and happy one. . . (JJ conquered the big water slide at Mt. Gretna lake!). . . and thanks to Janet Reed and her gang of volunteers for another nice exhibit of crafts at Kipona.
