It's Getting to Be That Time of Year


There's a definite chill in the air and we all know it's inevitable. Winter is on its way. So, today, I mowed the lawn...if anyone is looking for hay to bale, you should have them contact me. I harvested what I could, and I started to winterize my garden beds. I brought in the potted herbs I hope to keep going for a little while longer, and I tied some parsley up to dry. I think I'll try to bring the patio furniture in next weekend. I'll miss those days when I can run out to the garage in my bare feet or grab a few green onions out of the garden. At the same time, I do enjoy the crisp, bugless air. And snow, if it isn't feet deep can make a very pretty picture.

But then, it's time for pumpkin, squash, and soup. It's a time that is more introverted and reflective. I don't know how people live without the changing seasons. I know it would be hard for me to go without.
