W had a wee bit of rain this morning---any rain is appreciated since we are down over 20 inches for the year. Jimbo planted some garlic bulbs this afternoon and mulched them down good to help hold the moisture . I sure wish fall would get here soon.

I wish I had leaves to rake for a leaf mold pile. The ornamental pear on our lawn hasn't dropped it's leaves yet. However, a few of the maple leaves from across the road have found their way here. I might try to must the gumption to knock on that woman's door and ask if I could rake her lawn for her Rain here later until Friday apparently. I've cleaned out about half the garden. Maybe I will try to plant garlic this afternoon before the rain comes.

Ladies, I didn't have to ask for leaves (yet) . Enough blew across the street that I was able to wear myself out raking what was on my lawn. It half filled the large composter. Then I put a layer of comfrey leaves and a bucket of water to help it on it's way. Next, I pulled most of the tomato plants that were done producing as well as the bush marrow plants/ Powdery mildew hath taken over and the few small marrows left were rotting on the vine. Filled my municipal Green Bin again, mostly with tomato plants. There will be more for next week's pickup as well. I think this week is Unlimited lawn and garden pickup but I refuse to buy paper bags to put lawn refuse in. After that, I ran the Mantis through the bare spots and planted garlic. 18 Chesnok; 6 French; 11 Martin's. I figured with the Rainy forecast, I should get them in and settled before freezeup. Like Penny said, the Temps are starting to fall along with the leaves. Enjoy your trip to the river, W8in. Is it Grosse Ile you are going to? Penny, drive carefully.

Yeah broken down on the 400 on a Friday afternoon doesn't sound like a fun activity to me either. Hope it's nothing serious. Otherwise, enjoy your day!

Farmer's Market first thing this morning. Bought a mixed batch of gourds for Halloween decorations, then drug store for purple nail polish Then when we walked the mutt, we walked past a local church having a craft sale. Stopped in and bought two chunks of Goat Cheese; one garlic cheddar, the other Onion. No Vampires here . It was a pleasant surprise to have a goat cheese farmer in the city at a craft sale. And we almost didn't go because we didn't need any crafts....
