We planted garlic this weekend. A little late, but “a little late” has been the trend this summer.
The monsoons, which started right on time, are just now finishing up. (They usually end in late August or early September.)
Everything was late in the garden this year as well. Green beans in September, watermelons and tomatoes just coming ripe now. I hope that the first frost is late as well so that we can continue to harvest for a while.
The weather the last few weeks has been near perfect. Daytime temperatures have been very pleasant in the mid-80s, while the nights have been cool in the 50s. The sunsets have been nothing short of spectacular, and we have been enjoying fires in the evening and sleeping out under the star-filled skies.
By contrast, our temps have gone down into the upper 30s at night. Leaves are beginning to fall (no significant color yet).
I cannot say that I have ever seen such spectacular sunset color here. Thank you for sharing your sunsets with us.
