Don't freak out on me. This isn't an effort to kill off your summer. You still have about a month or so left to go before we wrap that up.

However folks are already thinking fall. I've heard way too many conversations about PSLs (pumpkin spice lattes), Halloween costumes, and decorations are already in stores.

I saw this at Costco last weekend.

We're JUST NOW halfway through August people. Come on.

Why are we talking Silver Bells In The City so early then?

Last year's event was very different. Because we couldn't all be together, it was Sliver Bells The Home Edition and it was on TV and streaming.

This year, we're back in person. Folks are excited. And plans are being put together to make up for last year. RIGHT. NOW.
