3 Days




Thanks to another dire weather forecast, the skeletal silliness had to be postponed again today. 





After looking at the mums this morning, we realized that the predicted hard freeze never happened and maybe the threat was past. Not forever of course, but for at least a week.





So we headed off to the last outside version of the Saturday Farmers Market.





Since all the vendors were giving away candy, it was pretty crowded.   





Apparently, none of the restrictions were being enforced today.  





While we were checking out these warty gourds pretending to be pumpkins, it started to get very windy and the temperature dropped to 39°F. So we immediately left for home to bring our pumpkins inside before they froze.





Then, in the middle of picking the last cabbages, I remembered there were some pansies I wanted to press. It's always good to keep focused on the important tasks.





This cement Athena was is heaviest thing available, so she's now the official flower press. She lives in the basement, patiently waiting between the recycling bag for the used coffee pods and the box of dead batteries. Someday we will find the perfect spot in the garden for her.





First, these plants need to find another home.





The Crew will be back on Sunday, pending another minor catastrophe.

Thanks for stopping by, see you tomorrow!
