June The sun is rich And gladly pays In golden hours, Silver days, And long green weeks That never end. School's out. The time Is ours to spend.

Autumn is my soul. Colder weather, wood burning fireplaces, pretty yellow leaves and golden light. I love everything about it and I so wish it would last just a bit longer around here. This playlist is something I made years ago, and I've been listening to it ever since. I have added a few new …
September is such a funny month in Calgary. It's the in-between. The transition between humid Summer days and brisk Autumn mornings.
