The last days of summer

It may feel like summer, as far as the temperature goes, but according to our schedule it is over. We are spending our last morning camping at the KOA we spent some time at earlier this month. The weather couldn't have been nicer. We spent yesterday afternoon at Lake Michigan, enjoying the sun and the surf. Not much to the surf, as it was quiet enough you could see the bottom.

Last evening we went into St. Joseph and enjoyed two concerts by their city band. The first was traditional band music with marches and orchestra stuff. Then they switched up and did "Big Band" music. We have tried to expose our kids to different styles of music and big band has caught their fancy. The band did a great job and the music was followed up by fireworks.

So today we pack it all up and head back to the hill. Tomorrow it will be normal programming all the way. September will be a blur, with two horses heading to Futurity in a couple weeks and our county fair just a week later. Hang on for a fast ride.
