It is over

Or mostly anyhow. Here in upstate NY, except for cleanup and planting garlic the garden season ended with a whimper when it got just cold enough to nip all the tomatoes even though they were covered. The whimper was mine. I love puttering in the garden and am already suffering deprivation.

Soon I will start some lettuce seed in flower pots. It won't be too long before it is time to start next year's geraniums. However for now I will just look out at the bare, too wet to work on earth and be grouchy. Bah humbug!
