We got 0.02 in. of rain this week. Last week's rain and some heavy dew this week have kept the grass lush and green, but many trees have dropped their leaves. Autumn color is very muted, mostly yellow, and brown is mixed in. Yellow jackets are much more abundant than last year. We still have marigolds and yarrow in bloom, still have bees. Mums planted about a month ago and regularly watered are about through blooming. Still picking partially ripe tomatoes to finish on the kitchen counter.
