Well, the summer is officially over. The equinox is past, the days are getting shorter, and autumn is officially here.

We moved to a house with a yard, and this time of year means planting trees! We've put four into the ground so far - two oaks and two maples. I think that one of the oaks won't survive the transplant, but the rest seem to be doing quite nicely in their new homes. My radishes and carrots are starting to sprout, along with some spinach and heartsease flowers.

I'm looking forward to the season! Lots of cider, lots of apples, fall leaves, migrating birds, and cooler days... Sounds wonderful to me.
