And so we come to the end of summer. Bummer. I don’t mind the lack of heat so much (though I’ll miss the pool, which is really kind of a big expense for the number of hours spent in it), but I really hate the darkness. It’s pretty dark in the morning already (at least at the time I get up most days), and it’s getting dark earlier and earlier. I’m really not looking forward to going to work in the dark and coming home in the dark. Oh well, spring is just around the corner.
Busy day today, as I try and get more of my deck stained. I spent about six hours at it yesterday, and while you wouldn’t think it would be tough work, all my shit seems to hurt today. It’s not the deck part – it’s the fence around it. It takes forever, and involves a lot of bending, squatting, up and down kind of stuff that my old parts really don’t take to very well these days. I’ll be lucky if I get this finished by winter.
So I guess I better get started.
Have a good one.
Summer is over. So many people left Shelter Island yesterday that the wait on the ferry line was almost an hour. Normally it is a few minutes. It’s nice and quiet but we, too, need to get back to the city in a week or so.
Having a heat wave. Summer can end now in my book.

It’s hard for me to evaluate the Dem Convention vs the Repub one. I find the Repubs hard to take no matter what they do. But, last night seemed a lot more positive and fact based than last week’s.
