When the bold branches
Bid farewell to rainbow leaves -
Welcome wool sweaters.

~B. Cybrill

Yes, cooler temps are upon us. And what tasks lay before you when it comes to gardening? Is your equipment properly winterized? Are tools cleaned, stored and inventoried? Lists of new bulbs and plants close by? Now is the time to prepare for next years gardening adventure.

I look forward to the mailman's delivery, don't you? The spring bulb, plant, gardening catalogs begin arriving in early January. What a treat!!!! Which is your favorite? Each catalog has its own uniqueness ... I like to peruse them all. And what do you do with all those catalogs? Local nursing homes, senior centers, schools, they all like your leftover or duplicate catalogs. Be sure to
Recycle.

Be sure to spend time outdoors today. In the snow, in the cold, in the rain, in the sun .... take it in, if just for a
moment. Hope you have a good day. And until next time, Happy Gardening.

PS. Want to send a Happy Birthday to my aunt, AC. Hope you have a good day. 79 years "young" today!!!
