Summer's End

It is funny to say the summer has come to an end when you live in San Diego where it is summer year round, but there are some obvious signs that it has in fact drawn to a close.

We walked Hana to the beach last night (it is her most favorite thing in the world to do and she gets pretty ornery when we don't go that direction). It was almost empty. Any other Tues. night in the summer there would still be plenty of people hanging out to watch the sun set and enjoy the waves, but last night it was just us and a couple of surfers and one or two other dog walkers.

Labor Day weekend was very nice here- we went to the Jack Johnson concert on Sat. night at the amphitheater - it is a great venue with a wonderful breeze and colors from the setting sun were beautiful. We took Hana to Fiesta Island on Sunday and went for Sushi with our good friends Emily & Adam. On Monday we did the typical go to the beach for a couple of hours and grill out- one last summer S'more for me, yum!
School started here yesterday and the sun sets earlier and earlier but summer lingers in San Diego through most of September (it is supposed to be a picturesque 77 deg. F today) even if the vacationers have left the beach!
