Lots of blooming going on right now. The several colors of mums are brilliant this time of the year, mostly yellow. All of the purple coneflowers are gone and a few of the blackeyed susans are hanging in there.
Impatiens, geraniums, snapdragons and some other annuals are still blooming as well.
I have a lot of one particular white perennial with masses of mini daisy flowers on them plus most of the goldenrods are still blooming.
The mini drought we had this summer has caused the crabapple trees to lose most of their leaves as have the two mountain ashes. The honey locusts are turning yellow.
The apple tree is loaded with apples this year for the first time. Until last year, I had no idea what kind of tree it was until I had buddy Trov come over for some tree trimming. He does this for a job so I asked him what kind of tree it was. He said that judging by the two apples on it, he guessed it was an apple tree. Smart aleck. It had never had apples before and I didn't plant it. It just grew. Very tart apples, just the way I like them.

Being an account of some things I'm interested in, what I'm doing, and reflections on my past, especially music.
