Labor Day means two fantastic things: an extra day in the weekend and an end to Tourist Season. (Not that all the tourists will be gone, just that it will be a little less of a circus getting where I need to go.)
If traffic is any indication, this might be the best summer we’ve had around here since before the economy went to hell in 2008. That means great things for the area, but a lot of frustration when you live and work here. Our roads and traffic patterns are not designed to handle the seasonal population boom.
Schools are starting again. My youngest niece is off to her first year of college (or university, for anyone outside the US). In two weeks, I’ll be auditioning for another show, and I have so much writing to do before then!
Though still technically summer for a few more weeks, it feels like it’s already over. Can anyone tell me where it went???
