Autumn begins Tuesday night at 10:29, which means we have about
82 hours of summer left. It’s time to check my summer bucket list. Watch
fireworks; check. Run through sprinklers; check. Toast marshmallows; check. I
also swam, visited the zoo, made ice cream and picnicked several times. I
attended the state fair, visited the farmer’s market, saw a balloon festival
and bought lemonade from neighbors’ girls. I raised a killer vegetable garden.
(Seriously. If you’re quiet you can hear it say, “Feed me, Seymour!) I haven’t
done absolutely everything on the list yet. I didn’t make a fresh strawberry
pie, or a fresh peach pie, either. My bike is still leaning against the garage
wall with two flat tires. I did a lot of walking this summer, but somehow I
didn’t do any biking. I could get those tires fixed today. I could even make a
fresh strawberry-and-peach pie tomorrow. And then start an autumn bucket list.
