And that was Summer?

What a trying gardening season. Lots and lots of cold rains in June ( slept with 2 comforters nearly until the 4th of July) a brief bit of good clear sunshine and then into an August when we didn't see much sun because of hazy humidity. Sky cleared on Sept 1 and we were all shocked to see that it was beginning fall - our beautiful golden light was upon us overnight.

Lots of fungus - trees, veggies, lawns - Nantucket was hit with the terrible tomatoe blight that wiped out the crop throughout the Northeast, Potatoes followed, then squashes and melons - I hear on the mainland the apple crops are bumper - good for them.

So, a sorry post after such a long wait - I'll be back with pix and some of the fun soon
