Bouncy there, @flowerbug .

We have had a very smooth October so far. The plants make some adjustments at this rate. Right now, it isn't dropping out of the 30's despite of what the WS said yesterday afternoon.

They revised things overnight. Yep.

It went to 0C/32F last night (so the weather net says) but nothing was damaged last night, possibly because much was wet from the day's drizzling. I still see no frost for the next week, though I suppose that could change. Fantastic weather for mid October. I may even get one more paddleboard session in with DD tomorrow.

It’s Smokey outside from forest fires. The wind blowing west toward the coast. It’s predicted to rain tomorrow and the next few days. Been outside getting the garden winterized.

Is that view from your home, Shades-of-Oregon? If so you live in a lovely place,

No the view is a pic taken over the weekend from the highway road across the Columbia river.

It's been fine drizzle on and off throughout. the day.

Tonight it's feeling cold with the temperature being at 8c. Humidity is 99, wind 10km/h.

Winter is drawing in

Saw the first flock of Canada geese headed southward high overhead today. Still no frost, but the next 3 nights will probably bring it. Found this little critter on my garden hose this morning.

Legend has it that when the orange band on a woolly bear caterpillar is shorter/narrower, the winter will be severe, while a longer/wider band signifies that a mild winter is approaching. So if this old wives tale is to be believed there will be less snow to shovel and less fuel oil to be burnt.

We did garden cleanup, put away hoses, take off timers, and fold up umbrellas on Sat and Sun. Monday afternoon I started to process the many tomatoes.

Today its gently raining and will be for months.
