Winter Ready

The flower beds are mulched. The firewood is split and stacked. And the tender plants and hanging baskets are tucked away in the greenhouse. I am so glad these fall tasks were completed before I lost purposeful use of my left wrist and hand.

A major storm has arrived. We have high wind and pouring rain. Snow is on it's way.
The dogs are inside - all cuddled up.Tonight I filled the bathtub with water (no electricity=no water to flush and other necessities). Then I remembered that last Wednesday I had taken post harvest pictures of the garden and greenhouse.
