    Me too, Mike. As a Teacher, summer months are my favorite season but the season goes just too fast. Time flies when you enjoy and don’t have enough time to savor it.

    No, the days aren’t longer – they’re all still 24-hours apiece.

    Rhetta’s right eye appears to be making a move to jump off her head.

    Not to mention that the summer climate in Canada is much more pleasant than in much of the USA.

    One thing I can never figure out, why is August placed on the calendar as the EIGHTH month – when the Greek letters OCT means that October should be the EIGHTH month of the year?

    It is funny. July and August both have 31 days and are the shortest months of the year and February with 28 or 29 days is the longest!

    We always had three months of summer vacation. What happened to June?

    That is correct. The summer solstice in June has the longest daylight of any day of the year. Subsequent days have one less minute of daylight apiece until the winter solstice is reached in December, after which the days get an increasing minute of daylight apiece.

    Just like February, the shortest month of the year, always takes twice as long to plod along as any two of the others combined!!!!

    I was hoping she’d finally figure out they need to say goodbye permanently.

    When I was a young, romantic kid, I felt the same way. Now, the summer feels like it’s 8 months long.

    And February is the longest! There may only be 28 days (and sometimes 29), but they’re all 48 hours long!

    Yeah, I remember those days too. Change is constant and nature remains of impermanence and reality! Sucks doesn’t it! ;-)
