I think August is one of my favourite months.  I feel sad and happy at the same time since it means the end of summer, but it’s also its apotheosis: cicadas and crickets are singing, the air smells like hay and ripe raspberries, the colors seem a bit warmer.

I enjoy taking long walks at that time of the year; I leave for at least one hour, sometimes more. It helps to relax the crazy little hamster running in my head when I’ve been spending too much time in front of the computer.

This is what a part of my usual circuit looks like…
