How I know it’s no longer Summer in Colorado:

• It snowed during the middle of August (in the mountains, we had temps in the low 50s and 36 hours of rain)
• The leaves are no longer green everywhere I look
• The temperature drastically changes daily (yesterday the high was 52*, today it’s 78*)
• The fan above our bed was turned off in August and I resorted back to wearing flannel
• I have started putting away my light-weight shirts in favor of sweaters (but not yet turtlenecks)
• I have rediscovered socks and shoes
• I will use my car’s heater in the mornings and AC in the afternoons
• Football season has started, which means my beloved Dodgers have less than a month to maintain 1st place and secure a position in the playoffs
