The End of Summer



Sunset's sky last night signaled the shifting of seasons. Fall seems to be crowding out summer quickly. 

It is hard for me to say goodbye to the summer I love so much.

The constant rain of June produced numerous complaints on the lips of Mainers.  Day after day of sunny gorgeous hours graced our July and August. I spent many days in my flowers, staining my deck and painting various projects. Our newly stained porch and turquoise table invited friends and family to pause and share food and stories. 

A few weekends and a week in July found us enjoying time with our children and grandchildren at the camper.

I discovered a few wonderful summer reads, which deserve a post all their own!

I completed PT, said goodbye to my regular doctor who I've been with for decades as she moved on to a new chapter in her life, fell back into my chocolate addiction full force, walked on a daily basis, and continued my practice of prayer and Bible and simply sitting with the Lord in the early mornings.

So here I am, thinking about what pattern my autumn rhythms will follow. I feel like I missed sharing the shifts of spring here and now another season is upon us. Visit me on Instagram to see how August Break played out in photos. 

Until next time...
