Vineyard Gardener
I took the early boat on Tuesday morning. It was the Woods Hole, a very comfortable vessel.
Fall is definitely my favorite season. The light is simply fantastic. The only exception is driving east in the morning or west in the afternoon.
We are incredibly fortunate to live here in the Northeast. The three major hurricanes our country experienced this fall stayed far to our south.
How could the weather be more perfect than at the week’s beginning? Cool nights turning into sunny fabulous days.
Last week’s tropical storm got old very fast. The days of wind rattled my peace of mind. I will refrain from discussing how much worse it was in...
On Tuesday morning an unnerving eerie calm was in the air. I guess that expression “The calm before the storm” is etched in my mind.
I doubt anyone can think of more perfect weather than we on the Vineyard have been experiencing.
I’m fond of the late-summer garden. Echinacea, rudbeckia, phlox, Joe pye weed, golden rod, and sedum look terrific.
I’ve never minded being out in the rain. I do not dash from the car, use an umbrella, or complain about it.
You lucky folks who made the trip to see the total solar eclipse.
I was enjoying my coffee in a lawn chair last week watching the sprinkler go back and forth. A hummingbird was darting in and out of the mist.
I’m happy about the nighttime temperatures this summer.
