OUR GLORIOUS SUMMER DAYS

When we think of the “dog days of summer,” what comes to mind are the languid and sultry days of early to mid-August, when the heat and humidity combine to make for a stew that can make even the most summer-loving among us long for the drier and cooler days of the impending fall season. They were immortalized in Nat King Cole’s song from the early 1960s about “those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer.” The dog days are as much a state of mind as they are a phys- ical fact, a time when all of us, young and old, grab some R&R to regenerate our minds and bodies before resuming the grind of our daily routines post-Labor Day. Everyone, it seems, is on vacation. European cities are fa- mously empty in August, as are our East Coast cities from Bos- ton to Washington. However, this past weekend brought us a large amount of relief from the usual torpor that we associate with the dog days. It was the kind of weather that we’d like to put into a bottle and open up in January: Sunny and warm, but not too hot, with just enough humidity to give it that summer-like feel without being oppressive. It was perfect for anything and everything outdoors, whether you were in the city, on the beach, in the mountains, or on your boat (especially a sailboat, thanks to the strong breeze). Rep.
