September 2, 2007

The infernal trenching, at least across the patio, is complete. We started backfilling and gravelling yesterday. 2 pallets and a circle kit of Paventia Ancient Rome pavers and 2 yards of fines are being delivered this week.

Today is clear and (so far) crisp. 43ยบ right now, heading for high 70s. Lovely.

Tomatoes are slowing down. Beans need picking, some of the pods are too old and drying on the plants. Corn was a disappointment, but I didn't expect much. The patio hasn't interfered with the pumpkins, they are starting to turn orange. at least 5 of them. Yeah!

One of the burning bushes dried out and appears dead. I'll cut it back, plant it somewhere out of the way, and see if it returns in the spring. No expectations, but it doesn't hurt to try.
