Summer's last weekend is here.

G'day Everyone.

The last weekend of August is traditionally looked upon as the last weekend of Summer. This is that last weekend that is here already. In my area, it's the Little League World Series. Starting tomorrow night, my home town of Williamsport, PA is going to be having a major party to kick off the next two days (Saturday and Sunday) of the consolation games and the Championship of The Little League World Series. It will be on ABC, ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPNHD. So get ready. This going to be one wild weekend of a party. By Monday, the city will calm down and all the kids will be on their way home. By Tuesday, it'll be business as usual.

When next weekend of September 3-6 (Labor day weekend) happens, it's view as the farewell to summer and the celebration to the start of Fall, as well as for the students who all realize that it's time to go back to school. College Football will be under way and the NFL season will begin.

Summer has been gentle to say good-bye and giving away to the season of Fall at nights. We may soon face the Indian summer days as well.

So whatever you are planning on the next two weekends, make it a good one.

Semper FI.

The oddest thing about Labor Day weekend that knows it is the last weekend of the Summer is when the summer pool closed for Good after Labor Day. I am think, hey, the weather is still nice until at least October, so why closed the Swimming Pool right aftr Labor
Day? That part I may never
understand because Fall weather
does not start until sometimes the
middle of September and not all the leaves are down yet.

The only other place to go
Swimming after that are the
recreation center that have
indoor pools. They aren't closed
and so isn't indoor pool at
hotels.

I hope everyone enjoys this
weekend and next weekend which
is the official end of Summer
for kids. My kids go back to
school on September 7th which
is the day afte Labor Day. I wish
they started earlier. But I
can't argue with the School
because they got out late in
June.
