Is It Fall Yet?...

Well according to the calendar, it's not fall until the equinox, but still...

We had our first frost last week.

The leaves have pretty much changed colors.

While the dogs are seriously digging holes...

We're trying to finish the last of the summer projects.

Kept waiting for the Aug. warm spell, there's usually a week or so of near 80°, but didn't happen. Maybe we'll get some nice Indian summer weather this month. Since I've put off most of the summer projects until now, it'd be great to have the extra time to work outdoors in decent weather.
