Starting to See Fall Color

With the little bit of frost we had a couple of weeks ago many folks were relieved that they were done with zucchini and cucumbers, but hopefully folks covered the pumpkins as we are having the best weather of the year if you exclude the wind. But the wind has cleared much of the smoke, so there is something good about all of it. If we could just get some more rain. Since we haven’t had much rain our thoughts turn to fall watering.

Deer On The Horizon

Many of us live in the urbanwildlife interface and I will not bore everyone with my opinion of that here. At my house in Florence we have a mule deer doe that hangs around our yard with 3 fawns. We don’t know if they are all hers or if she is babysitting but 4 deer hanging around the yard every day is taking a toll on the plants. Fawns are the worst as they will taste everything they walk by.
