Obviously, this does not refer to Cameroon, for there the daily exchange of light and dark is mostly unvarying and the two are portioned out evenly.
The long, lingering evenings of a prairie summer have been glorious. I'm disappointed to see them come to an end. After a rainy day, I left my apartment to take a stroll down the Riverwalk for some fresh air and exercise. Though the wind was blowing, the air was cool, and the ground soggy, I was shocked that in the luminous half-light of the darkening evening there was no one else on the path enjoying the night.
Thus comes the downside of our endless evenings--the short hours of sunshine during winter. Alas, they are coming.
