A few late-blooming hostas are brilliant right now. Lots of mums in bloom right now. Would have been more except I wasn't able to cut the blooms back in early July.
The goldenrod are in bloom with their mass of gold, plus lots and lots and lots stinging varmints. I have to be careful when I'm out there, especially during Japanese beetle sweeps. Those rotten insects are numbering fewer and fewer; about time.
The biggest blast of color comes from blue perennial flower. Plus, another miniature daisy-like perennial is coming into bloom. These 2-3 foot plants are covered with little blooms. Even some of my black-eyed susans are still yellow, but most are spent.
I was cutting the grass every two weeks, but after this rainy weekend, I cut it yesterday, after cutting it this past Thursday. It sure needed it. The grass was pretty brown from the mini-drought, but now, quite green.

Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.
