Goodbye to August

Goodbye to August

Uploaded: August 31, 2010 02:59:05

Description

From down the road at the Organic garden.
End of the month and going out with a Heat Wave.
Been the story of the summer but I am looking forward to the cooling temps, migrating birds and that nip in the early morning air....
Will miss the smell of fresh cut grass & flowers.
Not looking forward to closing the pool, Heating Oil delivery nor the Squirrels digging and burying acorns all over the front lawn.

Fantastic floral Jack. Heat wave up here this week but the bottoms supposed to fall out by Saturday. Like Canadian Autumn but the older I get the more I hate Canadian Winters. #8872440

Fabulous dahlia, Jack! We're trying to deal with the 90s today and tomorrow, but after that it should be MUCH cooler. Can't wait! #8872893

Just came back in from the farm helping my son separate the bulls from the cows. It is raining and boy do we need it. I first thought I was in Monnie Ryan's gallery when I saw this Jack, this is stunningly beautiful, WTG #8873815

Gorgeous color of both the flower and b/g-- great floral, Jack!!

Might've been an SUP (Stand Up Paddle) board you saw. Those are very long and wide although I haven't seen one quite as wide as a car. Not sure about the skeg (fin) size-- most nowadays are about 4-5" deep. Were they smaller than that? #8874257

Beautiful flower Jack.

One good sign of fall I've seen, the Pelicans are back !

WE had 47 days of over 90 degree heat, a record even for us. #8874278

Gerda Grice level-classic September 14, 2010
