It is the middle of the month already. We are well into Autumn, although the upper 70's temperature and humidity we came home to yesterday belies that fact. Today we are having thunderstorms! We were up in Connecticut over the weekend for a family wedding and then spent two days in the Endless Mountains in northern Pennsylvania, where we had rain also, but we hiked in it anyway wearing heavy coats because of the chill. Now we are home and must see to bringing in the plants and putting away outdoor furniture. I've already brought down the storm windows. The Dahlias are still in bloom, but the Cone Flowers have all faded. . . .
