Swinging Through the Seasons

We have come upon Labor Day weekend, the symbolic end of summer.  Although the seasonal end of summer is still a few weeks away, this is the end of summer vacation for those who haven't started school yet, and the transition into full on Halloween season.  It's been a steamer of a summer, with its usual heat but also unusual humidity.  And we're still a ways away from the crisp fall air.  But for now, we celebrate the passing of the connotation of summer--the blue skies, waterside vibes, and casual atmosphere.
