We're halfway through July. To me, that seems like the middle of summer. I know that according to the seasons we are less than one month into summer, but the functional summer feels more like the period between Memorial Day and Labor Day, and with each passing day I can now feel the acceleration toward that early September holiday.
We're enjoying a few days of cooler weather than we might expect this time of year. Tonight's low is forecast to be around 60F, and daytime highs are in the low-mid 80s. It is nice to have a respite from temperatures in the 90s with high humidity, though I'm certain we'll have more of that to come.
I spent some time today making travel arrangements for some meetings coming up in the next few months. But if I spend too much time thinking about October, I miss what is going on now, what is special to enjoy during the long, hot (or pleasantly warm for the moment) days of summer. Though the planning is essential, it seems worth making a conscious effort to keep most of my attention on the days that are immediately before me.
