End of Summer

On September 30th Sam and I went for our Sunday drive. Temperatures were in the triple digits as they had been all week. I had a sense that this was the last really hot weather for a season, and felt this day was really the end of summer. We looked on a map, and realized that during the summer we had visited every town in Butte County and I had photographed most every cemetery in the county plus many from other parts of Northern California. I thought it fitting, therefore to end the day and the summer at the Forest Ranch Cemetery near where we live.
