Summer twenty eleven

Whoa.

No, really…. whoa.

Where did this summer go?

(speaking into a megaphone): “Ahem. Excuse us? Could someone please tell us where summer went? She seems to have disappeared? Anyone? Buehler?”

In a way we are not ready for summer to be over. It’s hard to say goodbye to backyard barbecues, drinks on the patio, and boat rides on the lake. But to be honest, our heart belongs to fall. From the foliage to the pumpkins to butternut squash soups to college football, we could marinate in fall forever.
