We checked out the construction site this afternoon and found nothing new. But it's always nice to see everything that was there Friday still hanging around. All ladders, wheelbarrows and lumber were present and accounted for.
Bud picked a ton of lima beans yesterday afternoon, so we shelled those today. This year's garden also contributed tomatoes and corn on the cob to our delicious dinner. Sadly, it probably was one of the last times we'll grill out this season.
Fall and winter bring their own fun -- basketball season, big snows and snowcream, building fires in the fireplace, winter holidays. But the end of the garden always makes us sad.
This year, it's especially hard to say goodbye. Not only did we have an exceptional garden despite the drought, but we're also not sure where we'll plant our vegetables next year. There's plenty of yard beyond the Garage Mahal, but it's all so shady. And murdering another tree doesn't sound so appealing to me, even if we will replace it.
