I’ve started getting ready for it\u2014winter that it\u2014but there are still storm windows to wash and get up, the shed and garage to tidy, gutters to clean out and more. But, at least I got a start today. We did take the time to take hike for a couple hours at Lake Kegonsa State Park this morning. It was too nice out to pass that up. When we got home, I pulled up all the cucumber vines from the garden. The huge number of LARGE, out-of-control cucumbers was obscene! I can’t believe how many went to waste but that’s the way it is. Emptied all the flower pots, washed them and put them in the sun to dry and will put them in the basement a little later. <\/p>\n

Annette hung out some wash. We had taken down the clothes line when Henri rebuilt the deck so we stopped at the hardware store on the way home to get a new hook so we could put the line back up.
