Day 150

It's day 150 since the COVID-19 "lock down" began and school has started back up for some. Spiced Pumpkin flavored everything is sneaking it's way back into the world (despite my disdain for it). Halloween candy has littered the store shelves for weeks. Leaves are starting to fall and my chrysanthemum has buds! These are all signs of the Fall season ahead, but where did summer go? Even though we have over a month more of summer to go, it seems wrong that the season is coming to a close without having experienced any of the typical "summery" events. No concerts, no major vacations, no festivals and no Cubs games - I mean, can we really even call this a summer then? 

Hopefully if you've had plans postponed or cancelled you've been able to reschedule or find other ways to celebrate the sun, all be it a lot different than expected. What are some things you've had to change or postpone? What have you done to take advantage of the warm weather? Have you dared to travel, if so where and how?
