When they come, I tend to linger...to pine for what was... and so it is with my goodbye to Summer.<br /><br />I know, Fall brings crispness and energy, sharpened pencils and apple orchards, Halloween and a chance to wear sweaters and corduroys. But if had to choose between cute leather clogs and a pair of flip flops, the latter one please...<br /><br />Considering that I have trouble with goodbyes, it is fitting that I am <span style="color:#339999;">just now</span> ordering outdoor fabric for my patio furniture.
