We’re just back from vacation. In the last few weeks, we’ve driven from Halifax to Antigonish, St. Stephen, Boston, Freeport, Fredericton, Miramichi (Chatham), Halifax again (for 24 hours), then Cavendish, PEI. The final trip to Cavendish included four friends of William’s so we had five teenage boys staying with us at a cottage for five days.
I dearly love summer. I love the heat and I don’t care if it’s humid. I just feel better in every part of my body if the weather is hot.
Having said that, what I like about the fall is the getting back to routine. I always feel very ambitious as September looms and make many plans about what I’ll accomplish in the coming months.
I’ll be back here with a few observations about things that happened on vacation and about the unfolding of the new season.
Meanwhile, did you read that piece I wrote at The Writing Resource about the use and misuse of some of our grand words? Check it out here and feel free to leave a comment.
