Autumn is really here

[Loretta Riddell (Elohi)]

Well it's been a interesting day.. Doctor said I am in great condition for a old broad... So came home to do more tree cutting but got rained out... so decided to check out everything I am acclimating to Oregon weather. The Avocado trees look great one more winter and I will know if I need to change anything..My Mango seeds are rooting, the first tree I unfortunately forgot to protect and a cut worm got it.. but the roots are struggling to hopefully send up another shoot, and I have 6 more that will be ready real soon to transplant into native soil.one of them already has a upright shoot..Plus my Monkey Puzzle tree has given me 6 new baby Monkey Puzzle trees that I can transplant in the Spring... Watching my Maple turn red and other trees shedding their leaves..

Hope everyone is having a good day, since it's raining think I will start a slow cooker of Beef Barley Soup since the cooler weather has moved in and I had to turn on the heat to keep the dampness out..
