Can you believe it’s September already? Not sure where the time is going but it sure is flying by quickly. As I look around the colors are already changing in the hillsides. The leaves no longer have that vibrant green color, instead they have a more olive hue.
Much as I love summer I actually look forward to autumn when the days are still warm but the nights are chilly. The garden is winding down, I have cleared some of the beds, getting ready to plant a cover crop and get my garlic planted for next season.
Looks like I’ll have a good crop of Brussel sprouts this year.
There are a few little New England Pie Pumpkins in the garden.
Remember that large pile of wood?
My husband has managed to get it all cut up!
Now to do a little splitting. Then to finish the stacking, the end is in sight!
Always a good feeling to have a good supply of wood! Looking forward to Labor Day weekend. We always have a group of friends come for the weekend. It’s a good time to reconnect and just enjoy a relaxing weekend!

Lori,
I am so thankful to live somewhere that has really different seasons! I like them all, well, except mud season!

I live in the Texas Hill Country, so while our summer hasn’t been brutal, I’m ready for fall. In your part of the world, you get to enjoy all the colors of nature. We have some, but not as many. If I could change anything about this time of year, it would be the addition of more yellows and oranges from Mother Nature. Brenda

I wish I could send you some of our color! It is fleeting but so beautiful! I love fall in Vermont!

Do you cover your wood after you get it all stacked? We are in the south and all I’ve heard is we need to get our wood covered.
Loved the pictures!
