AUTUMN GARDEN

 

Dears, we couldn't have possibly asked for a more glorious weekend weather wise! After a long week, and our company switching to a whole new tech system and intranet program, not to mention me now covering two locations as Showroom Visual Manger, it was a stressful week.  Who said technology is a good thing? Give me nature any day. The weekend was spent baking some goodies for a trip later in the month, a trip to Strite's Orchard for my first of many Apple Ciders and a trip to the farmers market yesterday. A huge garden clean up and cutting back of dead and spent blooms was done, but yet, with what seems like another warm week coming and the past one, the garden continues to give some color and some of the plants are trying to give yet one more showstopper, the dears. Looks like we will be holding back a bit before the season of Dead starts. I won't complain. On tap tonight are a few friends coming over for a fire in the firepit and some good cold lagers.

Halloween or St Patrick's? 
This clover plant of all things makes me so happy, and I have no idea why...but it is huge, blooming like crazy and even sprouted some babies across the way from it in the garden.
A bumble on the flower of a green onion flower bloom.
Some kind of hawthorn I believe, but the berries are stunning color.

First pumpkin arrived!

    1. Probably another week or so I will cut my rose bushes way back, and get them ready for their winter sleep.
