If winter is slumber and spring is birth, and summer is life, then autumn rounds out to be reflection. It’s a time of year when the leaves are down and the harvest is in and the perennials are gone. Mother Earth just closed up the drapes on another year and it’s time to reflect on what’s come before.

Deadheading is a neccessary evil. The results are worth the effort.
But the effort is hard to get up especially this summer with all the rain in upstae NY

It seems like it’s hard to make it out there this time of the season. I have been gardening most mornings, but staying inside in the evenings, even though it’s nice out in the evenings.
