Rakes, Leaves and the Aroma of Autumn

I mentioned the other day that Nick and I spent some time out in the yard last week getting things ready for winter. There were leaves to rake, bushes to prune, plants to move and tulip bulbs to get into the ground. Oh yes, and there was some champagne to drink too. Mud on our boots, dirt on our gardening gloves and refreshments enjoyed in a fancy glass!

(It was actually bubbly brut (Segura Viudas) but we call it champagne regardless of whether the the grapes were not grown in the champagne region of France or not.)

Now I can’t wait to see the new tulips and crocuses come springtime!

Thank you for paying us a visit. Hope your Monday is good so far!
