Where did the summer go?

I feel as though we have been cheated out of our summer. It started out great with warm temperatures and sunny days and then… after about a month or so of warmth, we’ve had rain almost every other day. We’ve apparently broken the record for the “wettest” summer. AND recently, the temperature has cooled down so that our mornings and evenings are cold and our afternoons are warm.

It doesn’t seem fair that after a long and very cold winter, we were given such a short and rainy summer. Steve and I have only been able to use our Wonderland Season’s Pass twice because it’s been raining a lot. We haven’t even been to the water park this summer at all! Lately, we’ve had to wear sweaters and jackets and it’s not even the fall yet. Yikes.

I heard on the radio the other day that they’re predicting another cold winter this year. Isn’t that insane? I hope we don’t get as much snowfall as last winter. I think we had about 9 snowstorms and we had so much snow that people didn’t know anymore where to dump all that snow. A co-worker had actually given up on plowing… saying that plowing has become a pointless exercise because it would start snowing again as soon as she finished clearing her drive way.

I just want a few more weeks of sun and warmth…
