September Views

Warm September brings the fruit
             sportsmen then begin to shoot......


Well, September is definitely warm here. We are expected to have temperatures in the mid 90's all week. I don't know anyone who hunts so I don't have anything to say about that. Yesterday was Labor Day (the first Monday in September). Labor Day is a day set aside to pay tribute to working men and women and to mark the end of summer. It has been a national holiday here in the US and Canada since 1894. A lot of people used to consider it the last big day for cookouts and going to the beach before school started for the year (which was always the day after Labor Day). Now here in Florida, it starts the around the second week of August, so that old tradition isn't so famous anymore. People still flock to the beach but it just doesn't seem the same anymore. We went over to some friends for a cookout. They have a pool so the kids were happy but it was HOT! Here is a picture of Spencer hanging out at the pool trying to stay cool. He doesn't like the pool (Henry loves it). Spencer is my little chunky monkey!


My view is of Henry wearing his mommy's crocs. She used to do the same thing when she was his age with my shoes though they were usually either my high heels or my hiking boots. She also would not have a bottom half on most of the time as she was famous for pulling her diapers off.


He is such a little ham and so much like his mother was at that age that I laugh at her all of the time and say, 'now you know what I went through'. LOL

I will try to post some other pictures of the outdoors if I get a chance. I cannot say we are headed towards Autumn (we usually say Fall) weather yet.

Take care everyone! xxxx

    We had a real heatwave this week as holidays finished and schools went back on Tues and Weds. Thurs was a scorcher so I went to the beach again. Then rain hit the UK and temps dropped and this morning was decidely autumnal though now we have blue skies and sunshine with wind and cooler :(
