Sun in the Forecast...28º

According to the 7 day weather picture, we are in for some sunshine...Temps up to 60º which is great if you are outside working...Days of sitting on the deck are over for this year...Trees are rapidly turning all shades of yellow, orange and red, leaves will soon be falling to the ground.

The last two days saw me planting "The Bed"...It was a haphazard planting job...Years ago when I started gardening I would dig up an entire plot of ground and carefully place each plant just so, talking to them in a soft kind voice...Now I scatter the starts over the bed, take my small spade make a hole just big enough to get the roots in, cover with a little dirt then step on the entire plant pushing it into the ground and say "Grow Dam-it Grow!"

Herb is peeling, slicing (in the cuisinart) and drying garlic for the coming winter...Our house has the most odoriferous aroma...I have Write People today and tomorrow will start canning pears...They have been ripening for the past three weeks in the cellar and we have been enjoying them as they ripen in salads or just sliced and eaten like an apple...YUmmmy...Hugs To All...OWAV:)
