We had fine weather today for a walk up Burger Hill. Daisy and Ringo, who were married last year in an informal ceremony officiated by Sarah and her friend Sophie, came along for the walk. Jen harvested our two pumpkins, just in time for Halloween.

On Saturday Daisy had a doggy play-date to climb Burger Hill with Ringo. We stayed to watch the sun set over the Catskills. Later we saw the hunter/super moon. A well-hyped moon. On Sunday, Sarah and Jen visited the Sheep & Wool festival at the Rhinebeck fairgrounds. Sarah made friends with a lamb.

Jen gathered the remaining tomatoes and peppers ahead of tonight’s possible frost. I guess we can have fried or pickled green tomatoes, but I have no idea what to do with all those peppers (many of which are outside the frame).

Jen grew this teeny weeny melon in her garden. Now we are in a race against time — or, rather, against the first frost, which thank goodness is not forecast to arrive this week. Daisy pursues the fall sports.
