Fall thoughts

Here it is, one of my favorite times of the year. I enjoy the cool weather and the planting that can be done. Clean up time is at hand. Leaves are turning and it is just wonderful to be here to enjoy it. And just maybe, this year I will make it to the mountains to see the beautiful colors in abundance. Happy gardening to all!
