Hello Labor Day..Goodbye summer

This weekend we will say good bye to summer with wine, cigars and a big bonfire. I hate to see the summer end.  I love the beach and the pool. Even though it's warm during the day, the night time temperatures are too cool for swimming.  My sunflowers which were beautiful this year are starting to tip their heads and fade away. So this weekend as we have done many summer nights we will sit poolside with a roaring fire, enjoy fine cigars and a good bottle of Long Island wine.  My summer was great we got to celebrate Erica's college graduation with a huge party and got spend lots of  quality time with Jenna. Our visit with Jenna in August was great. We had 10 days to go to the beach, sit by the pool and visit family. So now it's time to usher in Fall.  It is with a sweet sorrow I say goodbye to the beach and pool, but welcome fall with pumpkins, mums and hot apple cider..
