This past week was wet, then warm days/frosty nights, followed by more wet here in Central Missouri. We need the moisture, but it would be nice if it could come during the middle of the week.

Mrs. Augie’s holloweenie party returned to the schedule after two years MIA due to the rona fears. The rain held off long enough Saturday night to get a hayride in. One of the couples in attendance are refugees from the communist state of Illinois who recently moved from Chicago to a little country town near Lake of the Ozarks. They are much enjoying their new-found freedom here in Misery.

In the greenhouse I have green salad sprouting in the planter boxes and crucifers coming in starter cells. Party preparations didn’t allow time to put the plastic sheeting over the green bean arbor. I’m hoping to find the time to get that done this week. Still have a good bit of cleanup to do in the garden before I can finish up the compost addition, but I’ve got all winter to get that accomplished.

“...but I’ve got all winter to get that accomplished.”

Jealous! While we’ve had an exceptional Fall, our days up here are numbered! :)

Laying out hoses to drain (I have a lot of hoses!) and raking leaves and clearing out beds and battening down the hatches in the greenhouse.
