I guess I'll just go ... crazy tonight

Weird Northeast summer in 2018.

Totally soaked in June, parched and hot in July, kind of a mix in August and now bizarro September, which has gone from a muggy 90-or-so degrees on Wednesday to  a dreary, rainy 55-or-so degrees late Saturday and early Sunday
. I hope we get golden fall with clear blue skies. Lord knows there will be more than enough grey and gloom from November through February.

Mt. Lebanon, PA, September 8, 2018

And yet, late afternoon, kids playing on the street in the downpour, yelling and shouting. 

Puts me in mind of this lovely song, featured in the 2011 movie "Bridesmaids." But this is an earlier artist, Irma Thomas

And, lastly, thinking of the people in the Caribbean islands, Puerto Rico and Houston who suffered so much at this time last year when Maria, Irma and Harvey barreled in south of here.
