Not even a month into summer, but the days are already shortening

When I was a kid, I remember the days only becoming shorter in September when school started. How things change. It's those darn worn bearings wobble and all that.

The days got shorter then, yet the months between the last day of school and the first day of the next seemed to fly by.

Lately the 1st & last hour of daylight is the only time it's fit to be outside.:laughing:

The only benefits of heat are tomatoes, cucumbers, and corn. Thanks to our cool spring only the first is doing anything so far... my corn isn't even knee high yet it's tasseling out.

Dry as a bone round here. Our "big storm with high winds" today yielded us only about 1/4" of a nice calm rain:confused2: We've been watering (our garden) all summer long so far. Just waiting for that first tomato sammie:cool2:

The far bigger mystery for me is the rapid acceleration in the perception of time. The last twenty years . . . pfft! It's supposedly always been that way for the aging, but is the passage of time accelerating for everyone, beyond that still, young and old?

Not that time even exists, so they say. It's a human created phenomena!
