With frost any day now, we have been striving to get ready for winter. We have cut and split wood, and cut some more.
We have ordered our new boots, as the air conditioned ones won't be very comfortable in the cold. We have harvested as much as we can, and shared with neighbors when we had our fill.
We have planted pansies and dianthus to give us some cheerful color in the winter months. Our small fall garden is in place with beets, broccoli, turnips, carrots, garlic and lettuce. Our pantry and freezers are full to the best of our ability. The hay is ordered for our cows this winter.

We have also weeded and mulched all of our fruit and nut trees as well as the blackberries and grape vines.
Life is good!
