I need to do a weed check on the 14 raised beds. Shouldn't be very much in them to take care of. I did remove the leaves today that had blown into the beds.
Cliff picked up the fallen apples for me and did the weed eating around the beds. What a blessing he was to me today.

The semps are looking amazing in the fall colors. I didn't have time to take any photos. I finished the mowing in the dark. Rolling my eyes.
I had to push the mower when doing the front yard, going along the north side of the house to the back yard it decides to self propel itself. Another blessing. I don't think I could have got the far back yard done if I had to push the mower the entire time.

Last week I enlarged the bed around the Mimosa tree in the front yard and planted two more hellebore. I still need to finish mulching the north side of the house.
I really want to get the beds along the back of the house cleaned out and mulched before weather gets to bad.

Tomorrow will be sunny but cold. It is our anniversary so we will go to Otis for breakfast and then on to the coast for lunch. Back home before dark.
