It seems like summer just started and now it's Labor Day, the official end of the summer season. School starts tomorrow for most kids. Fall is officially a few weeks away but the cool nights are already here. And the real test of fall, my allergies are terrible.
Today is the last day of the Great Minnesota Get Together, otherwise known as the Minnesota State Fair. I went last Tuesday and spent all but the first hour at the Miracle of Birth Center. A ewe had just started labor so I stayed in one spot for 41/2 hours. Her labor was longer than normal for a ewe. She had twins and needed a little human help with baby girl one. She had 2 baby girls, so cute. She had quite the audience for her delivery. It's too bad so many people don't see human births as miracles.
The Republican National Convention opened today. The only change I have noticed where I live, about 3 miles from the site, is increased helicopter traffic. Tomorrow I plan to go to the bluffs with my telescopic lens to get photos. The hooligans broke windows in Macy's, took apart bus waiting benches, and just generally engaged in non productive activities.
