If the weather cooperates, we are going to continue our outside effort of cutting and clearing some of our overgrown border. We’re inspired to make more progress.
Have a good weekend and stay safe.
As cooler weather arrives and the days get shorter, every warm day is a bonus. Last weekend, we walked the beach on a sunny, very windy day and we kept moving forward down a beach with no end in sight. It was glorious!
The next day was gray and cooler, perfect weather to do yard work. As soon as we got to work, we warmed up and were glad for the cool temperature. As with our walk the day before, we just kept going. Both days were satisfying and rewarding.
This is fall in New England.
