Winter is here. Look at all the snow we have gotten (11 inches so far) with more to come tonight. It has been cold with the high's in the teens and the lows -4* 's But the dogs love it. Good thing we bought a snow blower 2 years ago.
October and Fall go hand and hand. Last week it was in the mid 90's and today , October 1st, it was in the mid 60's. In fact snow is predicted for the coming week end.
The end of summer and the start of fall is here. Apples will soon need to be picked and the roses are trying to get thier last flower blooms in. The birds are all getting fat in prep for winter. Leave on some trees are getting thier fall colors now too.
Fall is just around the corner but the first of September is always that last blast of hot temps for the end of summer. There are no more peaches on the peach tree because the birds have eaten them all.
The apples are getting huge and the pears are joining them. Bees are getting pollen from from the Rose of Sharron flowers. The cali Lillies are blooming.
I can't believe that fall is next month. What happened to Summer? The fruit trees are getting so heavy with fruit the branches are almost touching the ground. And it is HOT...high 90's.
Today we had a Thunder Storm with lots of Lightning ...there is a stick bug living on my kitchen window screen... I found 2 baby doves under the peach tree.
July is here and that makes the year 1/2 over already. I alway think that July is one of the months my yard is at it's best. All the trees and plants are so lush and full you can barely see the house. It is now hot..average temps in the high 90's.
More of my plants are blooming now that summer is officially here. My poker plant has poker flowers and the roses are blooming. My St John's Wort is covered with blooms but one yellow flower was the first to break out. Can you see all the apples hanging over the water falls? It is gonna be a bumper crop.
