IT IS OCTOBER AND SUMMER IS OVER!

WELL, IT IS FALL AND WE HAVE HAD A TOUCH OF FROST.

MANY OF THE FLOWERS ARE STILL LOOKING GOOD BUT NEED WATER.

DON'T WANT TO BOTHER AS THERE IS MORE FROST IN THE FORECAST FOR OVERNIGHT. MAYBE THIS TIME THE FLOWERS WILL BITE THE DUST.

 

IT HAS BEEN A BUSY 2 MONTHS.

HERE ARE A FEW PICTURES OF THE PAST SUMMER ACTIVITIES.

 

 EVEN THOUGH A LOT OF BIRDS HAVE ALREADY HEADED SOUTH,

WE HAVE LOTS OF SPARROWS.

THE JUNCOS HAVE RETURNED AND ARE BUSY CHECKING

FOR DROPPED SEEDS IN OUR FLOWER BEDS.

THE WOODPECKER IS CHECKING OUT THE

WATERFALL. WE DID MANAGE TO GET THE POND

CLEANED AND WINTERIZED.

THINGS ACCOMPLISHED.
