November 2009
After a cold stretch with snow and a nice Halloween, the only thing left are the evergreens and ornamental grasses. Clean-up of leaves and cutting down in the garden is nearly done. We are hoarding our leaves in piles and bags to be used as valuble compost and mulch next Spring.

If you look carefully, you can still  find a bloom here and there stubbornly hanging on before winter is officially here. As gardeners, Mary and I are looking forward to a couple of months to reflect and browse our catalogs and plan a bigger and better year for 2010. So far, Mary has planted around 60 or so bulbs as she picks up the leaves.
