The Dark is Coming

I looked out my window last night at 7:45 and it was already dark. That my friends, is the sign of death to summer.

 It means the end of our exercise swimming at the Y. 

It means tanks tops won't be an option soon. 

It means the scooter riding will begin to deplete. 

And now I have to spend the next couple of months dreading the coming of 4:45 darkness.

That is very high on my list of grievances with Nashville. They are so far east in the central time zone that it gets dark incredibly early in the winter. At least in Austin we had light until 5:30 which doesn't sounds like a big deal but that 45 minutes can CHANGE YOUR LIFE!
