It is a nice time of the year Pam. Beauty in our gardens can always be found somewhere when we look around;...always!
Its good to take a rest from that rediculous striving for perfection we gardeners dream of at some times of the year. I am well off into that lack of perfection phase now myself!
(Its OK!)
All the cool seedlings Spring will bring from leaving some of it alone for a while are always a plus!
I'll be thinking of you in February. All is going to be well for you
