Goodbye Summer

Now we know for certain - summer has finally left us for good. Alright, alright it'll be the first day of the meteorological autumn tomorrow but still - one doesn't expect weather like Mausi encountered last Monday morning at this time of the year.

Early morning fog creeping over the fence

Mausi could hardly trust her eyes watching the fog taking possession of her garden at seven in the morning. Even the trees looked a bit sorry for themselves. Mausi is still hoping for a glorious Indian summer and probably a warm October. The only snag about Indian summer is that the days can be still warm but the evenings are a bit chilly and daylight is fading very early. Mausi loves long summer nights when she can sit ouside in the garden in the twilight and have a quiet read or watch the bats hunting. Fascinating creatures the way they dive through the air and perform the most astonishing manoeuvres without ever colliding with each other.

Ah well, we'll have to take life as it comes - summer was around in April, only nobody noticed then...

GF noticed last weekend that by about 9 in the evening there was a mist rising from the fields... a harbinger of Autumen
