Labor Day Weekend

I remember being a little girl and spnding this weekend at my Grandparents summer Beach house. was always hot and we spent most of the weekend in the ocean before coming hom and getting ready or school to start on Tuesday. woke up this morning it's 49 degrees and the heat kicked on. so much for climate change. there was a time when the pool was open through September. now the pool guy will be here Tuesday to start the closing proocess

I remember it being the start of Dove season. If you were a hunter, that is what you did. It still is and we are planning a big dove feast Monday night. Bacon wrapped dove with a slice of Jalopeno stuffed under the bacon and grilled...Still amazing!

It's a pretty chilly end-of-season here as well. Only supposed to hit 70°F (21°C) for a high tomorrow. Not quite summer weather. 🤷‍♀

This one feels kinda special.
A lot of people are anticipating it.
They are celebrating it.
They are also sad that the regular summer season is winding down now.
But the Fall is every bit as exciting as anything.

@Zonuss It has cooled down a great deal this past week making it even better to be outdoors and do things. And we have another Arctic cold blast headed this way for next week too.

A lot of things have changed. When I was younger I use to really look forward to holiday weekends. Now I'm like ugh! Long lines everywhere. Jacked up prices. Let's just stay home and go out on Tuesday. ☹

@cherokeepatti It was definitely dangerous. Kids were trying to swim. Other's were water skiing and some people were trying to fish. Then there were the bigger boats anchored off shore and the smaller ones pulled up on the shore and of course everyone vying for their space on the beach. It was a mad house!

@Musicman Also people drinking and fighting or acting a fool in other ways like driving a boat etc. is a big thing on holidays. They aren’t supposed to be drinking at the lake but can bring water bottles etc filled with drinks and who will know till they start acting out.

@cherokeepatti Oh of course!

I'm currently hanging out with friends at a cottage on Lake Huron in the Great Lakes region. Did some kite sailing and beach volleyball today and life is good.

Today it was 23*C // 76*F and sunny ..and tonight it's forecast to be down to 8*C // 46*F.... and the worst part is, only 200 miles north of Lake Huron they got heavy snow flurries all day today!

But 7 days from now it's forecast to be back up to 30*C // 90*F until mid-September!

A season of melancholy . . but also eager anticipation.
