It All Falls Apart

OK, I’ll admit it. Things have gotten away from me. Way away.

It’s been a really weird fall around here. There were some cold days a few weeks ago, but lately things have soared into the high 60s. Roses are still producing blooms, and I’m way behind on closing up shop for the winter. I never got around to planting the wheat, but if I had known that warm temperatures would persist into mid-November, I would have done it.

There’s still some green on the ground, and some color in the leaves. And just enough daylight to make the last moments of the garden shine.
