Good morning on this last Saturday of October.  I can hardly believe I am writing that.  We are supposed to have sunny skies today and temps in the low 60s.  East of here they had frost warnings.  I am not too worried about that because the three tender plants are now indoors and seem to be doing well.  With clear weather I will get the last clean up chores done and the tools put away for the season.  I think I need to transplant the spearmint plants also.  They are doing very well inside.

I just found a thin film of ice on the covers of the trash tote and the compost bin when I emptied the remains of the coffee and grounds this morning.  And the roofs across the street have a good bit of frost.  The plants outside, however, are fine.
