Fall is here!

Well, I did not post as often as I wanted to. Fishing and biking took up most of my time. The garden, containers, and lawn received TLC during the season; but not much time devoted to blogging or pictures to post. The containers have been emptied, cleaned, and stored away for the season. I dug up some plants, moved some around, tossed a few, and trimmed some plants down. However, I did leave plants with their flowers/seeds for the birds to snack on during the Fall/Winter season. My collection of hostas were great at the beginning of the season; but the deer made sure the leaves were gone so I could not identify the different hostas that I bought through the years. I will have to be more aggressive in keeping the deer away from my hostas next season!
I re-potted some herbs (rosemary, sage, marjoram, and thyme) and have it sitting by my bay window, which faces south.
It was a beautiful weekend; and I mowed the lawn on Sunday............but will it be the last mowing of the season...........we shall see. Hope it is .........because the gas tank is almost empty..............The next fill may be for the snowblower!

This may be my last posting for the season and will start up in Feb/Mar, when I start my seeds.

In the meantime........happy Fall!
