While Labor Day marks the unofficial end of summer, the season doesn't actually end until September 22! While I was outside enjoying the outdoors this holiday weekend, I was once again struck by the fact that retailers and commercial businesses deemed that it was already fall and it was therefore time to buy Halloween and Christmas items and start sipping pumpkin spice lattes. I understand that we are in the midst of everything related to the back-to-school time of year– but that doesn't change the fact that it is still summer. I, for one, want to enjoy that last month of summer without thinking about pulling out long sleeve shirts and sweaters, and embracing all things related to Autumn. And frankly the hot weather in Southern California would make it rather strange to dress for the fall and sip pumpkin spice lattes. Enjoy the rest of the summer, we have plenty of time to embrace the fall and everything that makes it a wonderful season soon enough.
