Happy Fall!

The week of the 15th has not been like fall, with high temps and high humidity (dew points in the upper 60s and sometimes 70). I know it's humid when our dryer has a puddle of condensation because the humid air comes in the vent and hits the cool machine. The headlines said "unseasonably warm," but I say downright uncomfortable. However, I shouldn't complain. It could be snowing.  This photo is a bouquet made from a native viburnum branch, which had been laying on the ground, damaged for an unknown reason. The red leaves and berries are beautiful. P.S. Below is my last watermelon for this season. The small melon developed later than the others but was fully ripe and delicious. The steak knife is for scale.
