Hail to Summer!

We had some hail a week ago when Jeff and Fran were here, but that was nothing compared to the hail we had last night. We experienced the biggest hail I've ever seen, and I was glad I wasn't out in this hail. Luckily, it didn't last long, but these hail had a good half-inch to three-quarter inch diameter and made quite a racket as it came down. In my last pictures, you couldn't even see the hail because it was small, but it's definitely visible in these pictures. We've had such a strange weather year as it is, but do these pictures look like August? A lot of the pumpkin plants now have big pits in them where the hail ripped through, but the garden seems to have survived, other than some holes in the leaves. Is this a sign that my summer is coming to an end?
