back to the garden!

The high today was ~70 deg F. For the last 3 weeks, its been noticeably cooler - and its like the garden, and the gardener, can let out a big sigh...

And enjoy some things that look great after the long, hot summer:

And some things that need a bit of help:

The list of things that need doing:

• Fix pipe
• Trim acacias & uncover agaves in the front
• Clean up the 'stone pond' bed in the front garden
• Trim up Palo Verde tree
• Clean up right back patio bed

But before I start on that whole list, I'm going to sit on the patio, without getting a 3rd degree burn! Here's to gardens that still love their gardeners after only admiring them from inside the whole summer!
