It's been rainy and cold recently, fall is definitely taking over as the weather guessers have claimed this will be a big El Niño influenced winter. Drier and warmer than normal. Prediction - In summer 2023, a large marine heatwave occurred off the Gulf Coast of Alaska and the coasts of Oregon and Washington. The heatwave is liable to be maintained by the present El Niño into 2024; regional oceanographers are keeping track of how it is playing out. Also we have had three small earthquakes the last week of the coastal areas Wa and Oregon.

Just been out checking the status of the gopher/mole traps…set out 12 thruout the pastures.
Need to catch up on the watering system and bring all the computer connectors in and turn the garden watering system off. We are expecting the first frost Oct 27-Friday.

Will winterize the lawns with some winter fertilizer soon. Designed to treat perennial weeds and moss.
Finished gathering pine cones, virginia creeper fall color leaves and oak leaves for projects .
The leaves are starting to fall big time. Bah hum bug….mulching them all …..

A few flowers still hangin in there.
