Summer's Last Stand

Whew. Y'all. Summer is not going down without a fight. Today is the last full official day of Summer, so Fall is just around the corner. Well, on the calendar, that is. It's still ridiculously hot here, hotter than average even for us (in Georgia). We should be in the low-to-mid 80s by now, but today? 95 freaking degrees.

Our driveway is starting to show some signs of Fall...




And the backyard longs to be covered in leaves...



And my Fall magazines and catalogs are arriving...




And beautiful, golden Fall light is coming into the house...



...but Fall is still more than just a day away. :(
I will still pull out the rest of my Fall decorations by the end of the week, though. And I will enjoy this week, as it is the main week for Fall premieres! Tonight, it's Glee!!

So, we will keep the air conditioning blasting, and decorate for and dream of those cool, crisp days of Fall.

Yep, you can sure tell by that light that fall is not far away!! No matter what the thermometer says. I love your little scatter of crunchy leaves in the driveway. Mine need RAKING already. I'm looking forward to seeing your fall decorations!!!
