And behold, there was summer and fall, overnight!  Like it thunderstormed for a day and night, and the next day was a whole different season!  It is officially hoodie time.

Saturday was No Kings, and an incredible millions of people turned out across the country.  Here it was tens of thousands!  Even in the pouring rain, St. Louis and many smaller towns came out to protest the fascist takeover.  Avdi and Jess went to a local No Kings, though I stayed home.  I’m so proud to witness millions of fellow Americans peacefully rallying against trump.

So back to the miraculous spectacular scene I woke up to, having spent my own peaceful night at Avdi’s.  Everything was sparkly and shimmering in the cool wind.  Words don’t even…so photos will have to speak for me.  I got out there early and got a lot done woodchipping various beds.  The leaves will do the rest.  So much light and air!

Later, A and Y and I went pumpkining at a local market, and came away with quite a haul.  It’s looking very harvesty and festive around here.  I’m starting to get why this is Avdi’s favorite time of year in MO.
