The beginning of the end

Well, Kat moved out yesterday. She has been an important part of the crew and a good friend these past two seasons. And this season she was kind of living with us. She and Jence (her beau) are off to build houses in Maine for a while, and then off to ski out west for the winter, and then who knows what. Thanks Kat!

And it continues to cool, the leaves are really starting to turn color now, we are getting calls for donations to foilage festivals, and boy, are the days getting shorter. I went up to cover some crops for an expected frost last night, and it was starting to get dark at 7-7:30pm. A couple of short months ago it was still light at 9:00-9:30pm.

We still have some season left, but the tide has definitely turned.
