Remnants of the Fall Garden

Days are growing short. The last tomatoes hang on scraggly vines.

It's been dry and the garden is a melancholy shadow of years past.

And yet, I love the fall. I love the cool nights and afternoon breezes.

Battling away the pessimism of drought I plant a couple late season seeds and look forward to spinach and lettuce and even carrots when the rains come.
