Cool and damp this morning here in Central Missouri. It started raining early Sunday morning and sprinkled most of the day. I didn't check the gauge this morning, but there was a bit over half an inch in it around lunchtime yesterday.

Been getting ready for Mrs. Augie's annual halloween party. She has the place looking like a set from a cheap horror movie, and still isn't done with her decorating. lol

Pops and I put the bush hog away on Saturday and hooked the moldboard plow to the big Minneapolis so we're ready as soon as the ground dries out. If it hadn't rained yesterday the plowing would be finished.

Mrs. Augie and I picked tomatoes and peppers yesterday after the rain stopped and made a couple gallons of salsa. Still have taters to dig and dry beans to pick and shell out. I also noticed some eggplant that is ready to pick.

Rocket spent three days and nights out being a wild coon, but the free groceries and dry coondo were too much for her to resist.

We had rain all day Sunday too, and some today. I may try to pull up the corn stalks, and add compost to the spot where I want to plant my garlic.

Should already have my potatoes out of the ground, but garlic is more important right now - we still have plenty of taters from Hubby’s garden.

Low carb for me, means I don’t eat taters like I used to.
