Carnie's Comments

There's "The Boys of Summer" from Don Henley and "Echo Beach" from Martha and the Muffins - great songs that are all about this time of year. It's a tough time for those of us who love summer. It's difficult to say goodbye, especially for we Canadians. Our summers are so short.

Astronomical autumn arrives today, marking the start of the shortest season on the prairies. 

It's so much fun to get the lawn furniture and the garden tools out of storage and seemingly painful to pack it all up again.
