It went from 90’s and humid last Saturday to 60’s and chilly today! I am SO cold. We will not turn the heat on this early, though. The vegetable garden will slow down now. We have not had an incredible harvest this year. I think I need to do a better job fertilizing it next year. It’s easy to spray on some Miracle Grow, but I will be looking for better ways for next year.

We have two large planters on the patio with light green and burgundy coleus and pink, yellow, and orange zinnias. I have been very pleased with that mix this summer! But they are letting really leggy now and it will be time in the next week to switch them over to fall plants. I will be sad to see them go because that means summer is coming to an end.
