The changing of the seasons

Most people mark the passage of time by the calender. They notice the cool breeze that begins to usher in the fall and slowly pushes summer away. As they mark off the days on their calender the warm days become fewer and fewer until the warmth of the sun can only be felt while sitting in an enclosed vehicle.

That's most people.

We here at the Rex home note the passage of the seasons by the sport equipment that is scattered around our house. Gone are the days of bat bags, gloves, bats, baseball caps and cleats that deposit red dirt all over my clean floor. Now I trip over sholder pads, oversized jerseys, footballs, helmets with face guards and cleats that deposit mud and dried grass all over my clean floor.

Yes, baseball season is over and Football season has begun.
