Haven’t done much around here. We got the gardens all cleaned up and the manure spread so they are ready for winter. Norman raked leaves and used them to mulch the onions and garlic. Only have red onions this winter as Gurney’s did not send the yellow onions, said they would send them in the spring, I told them to forget it, I wanted them to plant this fall. I don’t need them in the spring. The brussel sprouts will stay all winter and see if they set any sprouts and we are still eating on the lettuce. That completes the gardens. I have been cutting out briars so we can walk in the wooded area. We did fertilize the wild blueberries. They look great, maybe we will have more next year. I have been working on the family tree. Getting pictures, stories and names on the tree. Going great and it is fun. Only two more weeks and we will head south so we need to start packing and deciding what we need to take. Have a great day.
