Summer is officially over and regardless of our mortal delineations of the seasons you can really tell that it's so here in Upstate NY. Of course those that live REALLY Upstate laugh when I call Ulster County "Upstate", but it's relative I suppose.
The tomatoes from the Farmers Market are amazing, as are all the odd looking squashes (?) that I've never previously seen. The days are getting shorter, the sun is hanging lower in the sky. The nights are getting nearly cold and it's a great relief.
