Where Did the Summer Go?

It seemed like only a few weeks ago, it was just June. Now we are seriously looking at the end of summer as September is near. Labor Day Weekend is only a week away now, even though I swear it was just Memorial Day Weekend.

Yet, everything is saying summer is coming to a close. The days are definately growing shorter every day, and the temperatures are moderating. Sure there will be hotter days in days to come, but nobody can stop the descent into winter.

Summer seems like such a fleeting thing, with winter and cold weather being such a permanent part of living in NY State Lots of brown and cold weather, and not so much green. Summers greens will die out to fall’s brilliant colors, until we are left with the browns of winter.

Blue Skies, Blue Water

There isn’t much we can do about it, but enjoy summer while it lasts. And remember in 9 months, it will come back around again, as all does.

Where I Want to Drop A Rather Large Boulder

.. As a kid, I always loved those marble tracks, where you would drop a ball, and it would bounce all around, until it came to a stop at the end of the track.

Bounce!

… I think it would be fun to drop a large boulder size marble on the top of the I-787 “Circle Stack” also known as a “Compact Urban Grade Seperated Interchange” in Downtown Albany, to find out where it would go.

… This could be a great way to spend Albany City Taxpayer dollars!
