A Touch Of Frost & Lots Of Rain


The other morning we had our first frost of the season and it was pretty .

OCTOBER 2018 (2 of 11)                                        OCTOBER 2018 (10 of 11)

                                          That same morning the sun was shining and it was crisp and refreshing .

OCTOBER 2018 (1 of 12) This above and below photos are from when Miggs and were on our walk . I used my phone camera and put my sunglasses in front of the lens and took the shots , I like how they turned out . OCTOBER 2018 (3 of 12)

I had a chance to get things done in the yard and gardens as the day ended up so lovely sunny and very mild . I had help from Miggs to .OCTOBER 2018 (11 of 11)                                                            Ok so she napped not really helping  lol !

                                                                       I raked she played then  I mulched lol !

We haven't been able to go out side since as it has been gloomy and raining lots and there is another mess of wet  leaves all over the yard again Sad smile I am hoping for a sunny weekend so we can get out enjoy and gather and mulch all the leaves again . They  say do not clean your leaves up as they are good for the ground , this may be true but it takes a few seasons for them to compost into the lawns even when mulched and when left on the grass with lots of moister like the rains we have been getting or lots of  wet snow it can create black rot on the lawns and it can have a nasty stink and can become like a toxic fungus, not good really for the lawns , pets or even birds and critters  so we pick up the leaves and mulch them and use them for the gardens , mix them in the soils so that way they compost faster over the winter season and helps to protect some of my perennial root systems   .

  November already   WOW ! the months do fly by don't they?! Well that's about it for me  crossing my fingers for some sunshine this weekend .

                                                                                        Until next time
