Just in case you have not noticed, all signs are currently pointing to another summer gone. The children are firmly back in school, and the temperatures in the classrooms remain cool enough that the student body can stay and learn all day long. Sweatshirts are out of the rear of everyone’s closets, and they are being worn prominently. Football is back and being played every Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. And all the while, inside most of our homes, the air conditioners have been turned off, and all of the windows have been opened in order to invite in the fresh air. Also, if one felt so inclined, for a limited time they could purchase a pumpkin spice frappuccino blended beverage at a near-by Starbucks.
