Last days of summer

By Susan on September 14, 2007 8:38 PM | No Comments
Here in Minnesota, summer floods the landscape to such a degree that any hint of winter is thoroughly erased. But then, wisps of cool air find their way south, and we all know what's coming.  Just a touch of cool tonight, down to 39 degrees. But only a few weeks ago I wandered the eden that is Carver Park Reserve, just southwest of the Twin Cities. I'll head down there in a couple of weeks to see the fall colors, but for now, let's just enjoy this fleeting summer memory.
