Our week looks similar - temps in the mid-70’s, sunny or mostly sunny days .... just spectacular!
Unfortunately, the mowing I’m doing this weekend won’t be the last. Typically, my last mowing is around Veteran’s Day to mid-November. We just had 2.5 inches of rain between Wed nite & Fri morning .... that will keep things growing for a while. The grass hasn’t done the big “slow down” in growth yet - growth might be off slightly. Our maples are showing some color, so Fall is definitely here. My Celebrities are still producing - mom picked a big bowl of tomatoes two days ago - she’ll be giving some of them away.
As of this evening, I’m on dog/chicken sitting duty for a week. I call the chickens the “Rowdy Girls” .... they like to peck - toes are the main target (but I know better than to wear flip flops after the first toe pecking) & one snuck up behind me and pecked me HARD in the calf - really hurt. Sunset is earlier now, around 7, so I don’t have to wait so long for them to go in the coop to roost. I’ll have fresh eggs for the week :-)
