{Lulu and her beach burn - Sunset Beach, CA 2010}

As the night air makes that subtle, but unmistakable,

downshift into Fall, I am mourning the loss of yet another summer.

Truth is, I never want summer to leave and I'd carry it

with me everywhere I go if I could. Since that's not possible,

my images of summer's warmth will have to sustain me until next year.

It's a tall order so wish me luck. Happy Labor Day, I think?!
