We had some cool weather a couple of weeks ago, so I put a blanket over the tomatoes one night in case of frost. False alarm. It warms and cools relative to North Texas in November, so it isn't like my native Pacific Northwest, and I miss the cool feel of fall and the spicy autumn smell of wet decaying leaves and evergreen needles commingled on the ground.

Yesterday I mowed, hopefully for the last time this year. It is still t-shirt weather. Today is a little drizzly, and it may be progressively wetter during the week coming up. I am hoping to put a new roof on the house and paint, so we have our fingers crossed that the current conditions blow over and we're back to dry warm (mid-70s to mid-80s) weather for a little while longer.
