Eco-Outfitted: So Long, Summer

The nights are already getting cooler, and summer is slinking away. I'm debating braving the New Jersey traffic for one last trip to the shore—what are your end of summer plans?

Eco-Outfitted: Stargazing

I miss the Perseids every summer. I don't know how I manage it, but I have never seen the famous shooting stars that come each August.

Eco-Outfitted: Summer Days

I know I've been wishing for fall, but I also want to hold onto Summer as tightly as possible... already the days are getting shorter and everywhere I go I see moms packing their shopping carts with school supplies. Oh Summer, why does it always feel like you start to leave as soon as you get here?

Eco-Outfitted: Dear Autumn, Thinking of You

I don't know about you, but for all my wishing for summer, I can't wait for it to be fall. I'm looking forward to things cooling off and slowing down a bit.
