What fabulous color this fall! Everyday is a treat, all the more so for knowing the cold is so close... we are all trying so hard to resist buying anything new until we get all those final plants we already have out - of their pots and into the ground - and cleaning up debris and cleaning tools to be put away... and, of course, dreaming of SPRING!

I prefer winter and fall, when you feel the bone structure of the landscape - the loneliness of it, the dead feeling of winter. Something waits beneath it, the whole story doesn't show.
Andrew Wyeth

My green thumb came only as a result of the mistakes I made while learning to see things from the plant's point of view.  H. Fred Ale

Peru Lilies still blooming

"When I am overwhelmed and stressed
and simply unable to think,
I go out and work in my garden,
it’s much, much cheaper than a shrink. Unknown

The old dilemma - do I spray or not...??

"Aside from the garden of Eden, man's great temptation took place when he first received his seed catalogue."
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow - born Feb. 6, 1807

Red Peppers sill being harvested

The bees love to harvest all day from the Mexican Sage and then they curl up and sleep on it at night.
Thanksgiving - It is literally true, as the thankless say, that they have nothing to be thankful for.  He who sits by the fire, thankless for the fire, is just as if he had no fire.  Nothing is possessed save in appreciation, of which thankfulness is the indispensable ingredient.  But a thankful heart hath a continual feast.  ~W.J. Cameron
