Right now, I'm sitting on a blue park bench at Katie's Frozen Custard eating hot dogs and washing them down with cold Coca-Cola and a creamy strawberry cyclone.
This is me reading summer its Last Rites for this year.
Don't misunderstand me. I'm not delusional. I have no expectations for the hot weather to vanish just because we've just about reached Labor Day. However, I'm of the belief that, no matter when the Autumnal Equinox says summer has officially ended, summer begins on Memorial Day and ends on Labor Day.
Also, I'm going to attend two football games this weekend and tailgate at another one. That screams "IT'S FALL!" I love football.
In fact, you should come by our WacoFork tailgate, which is being held in conjunction with the Tye Barrett tailgate, which is being held in conjunction with other things like the Baylor-TCU football game. Where is it? Well, if you walk from the George's party tent to the Floyd Casey football stadium and look for our banner, you'll probably see us.
We'll have hot dogs and stuff.
Anyway, as I was going on about earlier, summer is over. It will take some time for Mother Nature to realize this has occurred and send us some sweatshirt weather. But I have no doubt it will happen.
Here's hoping we get both a rain storm and a cool breeze before the end of September.
So I'm eating hot dogs on a park bench and hoping to create positive vibes. I could probably use some help on this, so let's all think cool thoughts.
