A Blanket Of Leaves

I am feeling quite smug, having gotten my backyard all clean and tidy for the winter. I even mulched the garden, for the first time ever. We'll see how well it works. I put down a good layer of newspaper, then covered it over with the gorgeous leaves from my sour wood tree. The leaves make the garden look like it's covered in an orange blanket.


I had a little left over, so began mulching the back corner garden.


And I have pruned all the spent canes from the raspberries and tied the good canes up and out of the way.


I hope to get my indoor garden sown this weekend. And I also plan on making my first batch of beer. I love weekends!
