Fall Back

Signs of fall:

Daily frosts. This is comfrey in the chickens' garden.
Late sunrises, and the angle changes through the trees.
Lots of leaves on the ground.
The poplars hold on to their leaves.
The locust don't.
Blueberries turn red.
Corn turns brown.

Another sign of fall is setting the clocks back - and changing batteries in your smoke detectors, and flipping your mattresses (flip in fall, spin in spring). We lose an hour of daylight at the end of the day. From now on the days will seem so much shorter (even though they are about the same). Winter is on its way!
