Thanks to some much needed rain and adequate sunshine, everything in the garden is doing quite well. Beans, snow peas and broccoli in the photo above are well on their way to hopefully reaching maturity, and the arrival of first frost is certainly on my mind. It should take place sometime within the next two weeks - but you can never tell these days.
In other news, a very special item for the planter was custom made for me today, and regardless of how expensive it was, it turned out perfect.
During the wait I simply took time to get a haircut, and the stylist cut it just the way I like it.
The weekend is drawing near and I can't help but anticipate lots of time spent outdoors on various stuff. Fall weather is for building things, cleaning up, and of course things like digging more trench for the burial of the new water line. I'm ready!

I just came back from Alabama last week - Birmingham.
It was fun seeing that stuff was still growing down there while up here the veggies have been plowed under.

Nellie - yeah, things are still doing pretty good down here, but some protection will be necessary for the plants in just a few weeks. Peas, onions, and broccoli will be fine, but other things will be done for. Thanks for the comment!
We have been getting much needed rain here for the fall crop (some of what we have started eating already.
Glad your looking smart with that haircut..:o)
I hope the first frost holds off long enough for you to get at least a little fall harvesting in! Good luck and I hope you are making great progress on your surprise project! Can't wait for the big reveal! ;)
