The Before 8 Oโ€™Clock Sunset Arrives

As the sun sets at 8 PM,
Augustโ€™s halfway mark, a gentle gem.
Earlier sunsets on the horizon we spy,
Altamont Fairโ€™s lights will soon light up the sky.

Summerโ€™s ending, autumnโ€™s near,
Harvest season whispers, so clear.
Earlier evenings, a curtainโ€™s embrace,
More time for slumber, a slower pace.

Letโ€™s seize the moment while itโ€™s here,
Cherish the daylight, hold it near.
Stock up at the market, fill your cart,
Pumpkin pies and crisp days, a work of art.

Autumn leaves will soon paint the town,
A symphony of colors, all around.
With the harvestโ€™s bounty, weโ€™ll be fed,
Natureโ€™s tapestry, a canvas well spread.

Earlier sunsets, a shift in the game,
Less time for play, but lifeโ€™s not the same.
Embrace the change, let it fill your sight,
As we dance in the golden, fading light.

Letโ€™s seize the moment while itโ€™s here,
Cherish the daylight, hold it near.
Stock up at the market, fill your cart,
Pumpkin pies and crisp days, a work of art.

The nights grow cooler, stars shining bright,
A touch of nostalgia in the fading light.
The Altamont Fairโ€™s a gentle reminder,
Of endings and beginnings, a seasonโ€™s binder.

Earlier sunsets, a trade-off we find,
More time to reflect, to unwind.
Embrace the shift, let your spirit fly,
In the hush of dusk, under the twilight sky.

Letโ€™s seize the moment while itโ€™s here,
Cherish the daylight, hold it near.
Stock up at the market, fill your cart,
Pumpkin pies and crisp days, a work of art.

So as autumn draws nigh, letโ€™s not forget,
The magic in endings, as sunsets beget.
A season of change, of beauty and grace,
Tonight is the 8 PM sunsetโ€™s embrace.

Fermented

The wood chips on the Connecticut Hill Forest Demonstration Trail were flooded due to beaver damage, and they really were pungent, smelling a lot like slightly sour silage.

Outside Maratahon

Again, northing really remarakble about this scene on NY 291, but just a common view much of Central NY farm country.
