I called retreat shortly after 5 PM when I finished a walk. I pulled my flag down for the flag and unhooked it so I could fold it and put it away for the night. Summer is now over for all intents and purposes. Yeh, I know the calendar says otherwise but I still follow the military tradition of marking the end of “The One Hundred and One Critical Days of Summer”. We used to mark it in a similar manner when I was a kid by watching the ending of the Jerry Lewis Marathon for Muscular Dystrophy. Some of the signs that we use to recognize another season ending. Time moves on.

The calendar can say whatever it wants but Labor Day means you’re starting fall. Period.
