I'm afraid I have tended this blog much like I tend my garden. By August it is mostly maintaining and pulling weeds. Dull boring work without the excitement of the new beginings of spring. It is my temperament, I am at my happiest starting a new project but the longer it drags on the harder it is to return to the task. My house is littered with projects unfinished.
So let me do some catchup.
After summer and the butterflys come Fall and the endless cleanup and leaves. Nothing says fall as well as the Ginko tree. We have two of them. They turn a beautiful golden yellow. One day you have a gorgeous tree full of leaves and then the next morning you have this.


Here is Alberto, a neighbor helping me do fall cleanup and lay down a little mulch.
