This fall I've simply run out of time. We've had a bit of snow already and I still have leaves to rake! Cathy Gen,

Lists are always helpful because you can go down and see if you've missed anything. Love the to-do list - thank you!

I guess the force of my will just can't compete with Mother Nature's. Let me know if you find a way! Hey Shady, I've lots of projects on the go still too. Saturday was a gardening day, but Sunday and Monday were mostly about having fun. We've had the most amazing weather this long weekend. (Canadian Thanksgiving) Took our own advice and went on a hike Sunday between the main course and dessert, then did a big bike ride today. Trying to cram in as much outside time as possible before the weather turns cold! Cathy Hi Fern,

Because you are so much further north than I am, I take it the hint will work for me, too! I tried turning them upside down in my basement last winter, but they died. I have a lot of work to do these next few days. It was rainy today, though. I especially like your last suggestion. It's so beautiful these days!! Cathy, What a great idea about geraniums.

I can't wait to see the flowers! Is there a way to morph past winter? ;-) Plant spring bulbs; add bonemeal and water well.
