End of The Season / by sam taylor

End of The Season

Good Saturday Afternoon!

I know this is a bit off schedule, but I took yesterday off just to go outside and enjoy what was likely one of the last “great weather” days of the year - a true “end of the season”.

2020 has been so strange, it’s hard to totally comprehend. Why did so many people respond to lock downs and quarantines by going out to the parks and forests? Will they keep going after this is “all over”?

It’s also interesting to see how none of this made much difference in some circles. I was talking to a fellow yesterday about the weirdness of 2020, and he mentioned the biggest worry he had this year was how dry it was - that it was hard on his crops. I was honestly refreshed by that conversation.

Fall and Winter 2020 are going to be something to behold, I suspect. I’ve heard of a curse - “May you live in interesting times”. And the times, they are interesting. Fall is a transition time regardless, and there are so many things in upheaval right now that its tough to know where to stand to stay out of the chaos. That all said, I can make simple wishes. I wish all of you a happy, healthy, and calm rest of 2020.

Hope y’all have a great rest of your weekend.
