the lawn was mowed one last time on Sunday…

whatever leaves are left in the front yard will stay there for all the little creatures, although there aren’t very many leaves…

the garden is a different story… currently it is difficult to see the pond as the net is nearly completely covered with leaves… the elm tree next door still has a few leaves to fall so we will likely wait for them to come down before removing the net and putting the leaves in the flowerbed closest to it…

at that point we will probably bring the fish into their winter condo…
