stoutfellow about the apparently abrupt end to summer. Just now, I heard the lawnmower outside and my immediate reaction was Isn't that really unnecessary this late in the year? Then I snapped to attention and realised that it's still freakin' AUGUST; they've probably got two more months of mowing ahead of them.
I blame the chill gray weather, but more than that I blame the geese. The past two nights, I've heard their honking as they take the Great Lakes Flyway south to their winter homes. Sunday I was able to say that it was nothing more than a freaky flock of overachievers, but two nights in a row makes it a Trend.
I'll be happy for some sun again. The low barometric pressure is messing with my sinuses to the point where I can't tell if I have a cold or not. Also, this morning I noticed that the clouds are moving in from off the Lake, which always weirds me out. Here at the eastern edge of the Great Plains, you take for granted that weather moves reliably from west to east; when it doesn't, something is Just Not Right and odd things begin to happen. Like geese moving south before Labour Day.
