Still here

Me and the garden.

The garden October 25th with Scout

After a couple brief cold snaps, we've been enjoying beautiful fall weather with highs in the 60s to 70s and lows in the 40s to 50s. Everything is still green and growing. A lot of the green in the garden now is cover crops, oats and radishes. There are supposed to be some peas mixed in there, but a rabbit found his way into the garden shortly after I planted the cover crops, and it looks like he must have eaten them.

The cosmos that I planted under my bird feeders are really enjoying this fall weather. They have more flowers on them than they've had all summer.

Despite all the green, I'll be doing a lot of garden clean up this weekend. Cooler temperatures are coming, and it's time to get ready.
