For the moment, the garden is still fully alive. The last dahlia has finally bloomed, and everything looks pretty happy, although the deck garden is looking a little sparse with the tomato gone. This will likely change starting tomorrow – regular October weather, ie daily temps topping out maybe near 60, and the possibility of frost, is setting in.
I cleaned up the shed yesterday – things aren’t fully stowed since the garden isn’t put to bed, but things are neater now, and I’ll be able to stow the rest easily. I’ve gotten the seed starting supplies back into the garage, and the dahlia storages supplies are ready to go. It suddenly feels like Fall.
