2 weeks of good fall growing weather coming up, picked last cantaloupe, two more butternut on the vine, lots of Anaheim and jalapeño to pick along with a lot of tomatoes.
Broccoli, spinach, lettuce. Radishes, kolhrabi, peas and beans in the ground.

During the rain he's made half a dozen or so trips to the feeder
Brings a smile on a grey day
