The Last Lemonade of Summer: August 2009 Mix

Yesterday it was Summer and when I woke up today it was Fall. Summer slipped through my fingers. This is the time of year where it hits me I’m 3/4 of the way in and didn’t do everything I wanted.

Listen to this mix at dusk, drink in hand, on a Sunday night before you have to go back to work the next morning. Also appropriate when driving back from a farm in the middle of the country, with a bag full of fresh corn and some apple cider.

Also, it’s nearly impossible to make a country laden mix that isn’t incredibly depressing, listen at your own risk.
