in this I confide
beware ides of October
headed for a Fall

Every year — for 44 years now I think — my wife's family has a weekend reunion in the Adirondacks of upstate New York. This is one of the several camps (cabins) we are so grateful to stay in for a brief and glorious time.

DEFINITION of this one-syllable noun:

(used with a singular or plural verb) (in the ancient Roman calendar) the fifteenth day
of March, May, July, or October, and the thirteenth day of the other months.
