it's october, already???

rain rain go away come again another day...how about you just stay away!!! we have had so much rain in the last month that it has made working in the garden tough. we did manage to get out there this sunday. all things considered, it was in surprisingly good shape. there weren't as many weeds as i expected and most the plants look to be faring well for the season.

looking around the garden you can see fall creeping into the landscape. trees are beginning to show color and lose leaves. plants are dying back and fall flowers are screaming for your attention.

every time i look at the herb beds, the basil is bigger and more spectacular. it is beginning to look as if it could take over the whole garden.

one of falls show stoppers, the asters in the rain garden.

the burning bushes are showing a hint of red, the colors should be good this year. we have had a fairly cool and very wet year which is something we have not had for a while.

sunday, 10/4's breakfast was a blueberry muffin cake. sorry, no picture and no cake either. it didn't last long at home! see you next week, join us sometime!
