The days are getting shorter and nights a bit cooler, but right now we are having some summer like weather with temps in the 70s and plenty of sunshine.
The color goes on, however. The sedum have their red heads glowing and the mums are doing their mum thing with lots of colors. The asters are blooming as well as are some sort of wild daisy thing where each plant gets hundreds of little bitty white blooms. Most of the goldenrods are now brown though.
The bees are very much attracted to these plants and I have to be careful moving around them.
I have been doing a lot of work on the south ends of the east and west pine islands, which just don't get a lot of color. I have been transplanting daisies, black-eyed Susans and trimming back the lavender and planting blue salvia.

YOGI-ISMS: I think Little League is wonderful. It keeps the kids out of the house.
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.
