Call it summer, call it fall, it doesn't much matter to me. Some of the best weather we get in New England is in September. Already I've been enjoying the cooler sleeping nights and crisp mornings that turn into deliciously warm afternoons. And despite a drought and the ninth hottest July on record in CT, my garden appears to be relatively lush.
But where did summer go? More so than usual it seems like everyone I know is asking the same question this year. Even I have to admit I feel slightly cheated. So tonight please join me as I attempt to relive the glory days by retracing my steps down that lazy, hazy memory lane called Summer 2012.

No wonder summer is fleeting-time flies when you're having fun!. As soon as I hit the "publish" button on this post, I just know I'm going to wish I'd included more pictures. But hey, with any luck there's always tomorrow so make every day count!
TGIF!
