Frost has been here, if only briefly, and the rain is drizzling down this morning. The whole world seems wet, and our precious summer is fading fast. We comforted ourselves when summer was so long in coming, that it would last longer into the fall months. Not so! Unless we are granted some Indian Summer, we are plunged headlong into cold mornings, garden clean-up, and preparations for winter. Too soon! Our neighbor's orchard is preparing for harvest. The crab apple tree is full, and ready for cider in about a month.

Fall is on its' Way

First frost on the same day as the first day of school? Way too early. But may the cold develope the sugar in those crab apples.
