It's cold at tulip time! We went once many many years ago. We ran to Pell in March last year because we got a new truck and he wanted to check gas mileage. We brought home cookies...

Bye bye daylilies

I left off;
Bye bye fresh raspberries, we have had them picked on a farm about fifteen miles south of us. Sighing!

Well latest I saw on the 5 PM news is that Mathew will hug the coast of Florida and ride up from mid Florida on. Wishing it to go out to sea and not land.

It was lovely here today. Needed a sweatshirt in the shade but the sun was out and it felt like a perfect Fall day.

I took advantage of the lovely weather to tackle working on a small section of the garden that apparently I have ignored last year and this year as found weedy grass, sapling trees and generally overgrown shrubs. Took care of it all, I Have another big batch of yard waste but what a difference in that garden section. No longer looks overgrown and neglected.

Around 54 again this morning, heavy fog in the valley kept us overcast until noon when the sun finally came out. Temp went up to 66. Planning a drive out to Quechee tomorrow to see if the leaves at the gorge have changed yet and a stop at the Cabot store to stock up on cheese. The cooler weather has me craving homemade mac and cheese to go with burgers on the grill. Killington is a little further out and might provide more opportunities to catch foliage shots...

Yum, raspberries. The apple orchards are all starting to open for picking. We have a few trees, a dwarf 'Liberty' on the front lawn and a few misc. varieties in the pasture out back. Thinking I'll pick and make apple jelly this year, then freeze some applesauce like last year.

Rita, the latest weather I've seen is showing the hurricane hugging the coast to N. Carolina then going east and back south Blinking It's not suppose to come up this way at all....after saying last night it was going to come up into New England....that is quite a change.

Hey Sally, how'd you get the little degree sign? I've tried the usual alt 248 but it doesn't work.

I'm already hating the shorter daylight periods Angry Angry Angry Got more rain last night which we needed. Temps are pretty decent today low to mid 70's. Kind of in that period of not sure what to wear to work days Blinking Blinking
