I never take my Shaks out of my closet, but I haven't worn one since May. I had had some reactions to wool in March, so hopefully the rest from it will be good for my body.
I don't mind thinking about the winter, because that means x-country skiing. But, there's plenty of summer left. September is just about the nicest month here! And despite what I thought, not being on an academic schedule is making the transition of the seasons better for me! Nothing is going to change; I am not going back to work teaching or back to grad school. I have time to enjoy riding and I don't wind down my riding until the beginning of December or when the first snow flies. I look forward to 3 more months of good riding, starting some personal training in the fall, hiking, and that very short x country ski season/snow shoeing.
