Perfect Days and Nights in Evanston

I just want to put this out there. We have been blessed with some incredible weather this summer. I wish I could have enjoyed more of it. Still, quiet, and perfect evenings, neither too sticky nor cool, beckoning a walk with a loved one, or simply alone. Nights requiring neither air conditioning nor closed windows, leading to mornings where birds and sun, rather than some mechanical alarm, are our waking. Stunning full moons; gardens exuberant in the occasional rain, not wilted by the usual blast furnaces of August. There is a lot to be thankful for.
