Blaze of Glory

 Well October is determined to go out in a blaze of colour, albeit wet.

We dodge the wet days which are interspersed with golden days.

Plenty still to do in both gardens.

At home the new greenhouse is nearly packed to capacity. It is very strange not to have a second one especially at this time of the year when so much is taken inside.

The late sun, just going down makes me feel unexplicably sad, the exact opposite of the expectancy of spring.

And the stars are still chrysanthemums and dahlias.

But other things still grab my attention.

Tomatoes and peppers continue to ripen indoors. The pumpkins are stored and lettuce continues to grow.

Happy Hallowe'en everyone.
