To the Editor:

September … When did that happen? I could swear it was just June and I was planning the first of many barbecues or cocktail hours.

Seeing all the kids going back to school becomes a bittersweet time of the year. The unofficial end of summer has finally arrived and I am no closer to wanting it to end than I believe anyone else. In a few weeks instead of sweeping up sand we’ll be raking leaves and in a few months from that maybe even shoveling snow, but I hope we have some reprieve.
