Eternal Summer…

It is far too soon. I do not remember it coming so fast.

Has fall always started on Labor Day? Or is it because Starbucks decided to release that awful PSL drink early this year? (don’t hate me). Once the PSL is available, is it now fall?

Some days I dream of an eternal summer. A forever of waking up and taking the dog out in barely there layers. A constant need for the ceiling fan to lull me to sleep. The never grabbing a coat or extra layer as I’m running out the door.

Perhaps it was the summers living in Florida for “home leave” every year we came back to the States. Or that year and a half of living basically on the equator. Or my Californian birthright.  Perhaps a combination of these causes me to pause and wonder if I’m ready for fall.

However while I hold on to my dream of eternal summer, I guess I can acknowledge the perks to come.

Like last weekend spent at the cabin. Due to rainy days and 66 degree temps favorite fall activities were had. That, and a lot of wine.  A few flabongos may have been had as well 🙂

Perk #1 Wine filled games of Telestrations with a backdrop of constant rain…

Chicken Breast

Umm……

Cabin Town

Perk #2 Mornings spent perusing the small town boutique for new sweaters.

Almond Latte

And yes, Perk #3, my first hot latte. Sorry, not a PSL. Again, don’t shoot me 🙂

Am I the only one dreaming of an eternal summer? What is your favorite fall activity?

  1. Eternal summer sounds like my worst nightmare. I am a huge fan of seasons, especially fall and winter. HOWEVER, I definitely agree that summer isn’t nearly over! Our pool closed in our apartment building and it has been in the 90s/feels like 100s all week! Doesn’t make any sense. Here in DC we probably have a month+ left of summer.

  2. I think about eternal summer all the time and wonder if then I wouldn’t appreciate summer as much as I do now. I could even handle the cold.,..it’s the dark days that get me (although I’m not a fan of the cold, either). We’ll just have to make it a fun winter!

  3. Living near the equator for 4 years was what it took to get me hooked on eternal summer! Now I definitely want it. I will admit seasons have a few perks, so it’s best to enjoy them if you have them…but eternal summer is pretty awesome…
