Just another incredibly beautiful evening at the garden...

Another sunset visit to the garden, and the weather was spectacular.  A front came through this morning and cleared out the warm humid air, bringing us our first real hint of autumn: cooler, drier with a lovely brisk northwest breeze to keep the mosquitoes away.  Invigorating.  The lenticular clouds were a constantly changing show and the golden hour light kept drawing me away from the garden tasks.

We picked many tomatoes again, and I even found 4 usable squashes amongst the quickly declining plants.  I was prepared to pull them all out until then.  Found a number of small squashes forming and quite a few blossoms.  So they got a reprieve.  We'll give them another week or so.  I was also able to pick a nice bunch of pole beans.  Looking good! 

While we were working in the garden, this young woman was wandering around the area.  Before she left she came over to our garden and thanked us for the gardens, because they are so beautiful.  A very lovely complement.




Senior pictures being taken. This time of year we see this all the time.
