Summer dreams

The summer is closing, the fall is approaching. As we look ahead, what's one hope you have for the fall, and one last wish for the summer?

 

Mine: A last wish for the summer is to learn how to swim or some other skill (like practicing what I write about five days a week and learn to code) and the hope is that cooler weather will inspire me to do more, not fewer, outdoor activities.
