It feels like summer is quickly winding down - the sun is already setting around 8 pm. It feels like only a week or so ago that it was still light past 9 pm. Not because I particularly want to celebrate my birthday - that's not my thing - but I did take the day off work. However, with classic inevitability, I picked by far the worst day of the week - an overcast day totally non-conducive to taking a bit of a drive to a photogenic hiking spot. That is disappointing, but I will try to make up for it with better weather forecast for the weekend.
