Today’s Sign of Autumn.
Migrating birds! This is the peak time, billions flying south, mostly flying at night. The Red Wing Blackbird and Killdeer are very vocal.

Autumn is often thought of as the season ending life cycles.

Rain!
In a drought year we’ll take it any way we can get it.
We had showers the two days and this morning it’s real,measurable precipitation.

No wine harvest this weekend. We need great food to go with wine!
So garden harvest!
I’ve been in the garden since I was 3 days old, I only started making wine when I was 13.
This morning soy beans for edamame and green beans into the freezer. More green beans tomorrow and tomatoes! Cukes and eggplants to give away to visitors, got a big surplus.
Peppers to stuff with the wonderful beef from our cattle and put in the freezer.
Garlic to plant, ZillahZillah sweet onions to plant.
Potatoes to harvest to accompany the Osso Buco from the same animal.
Life is good.

Peaceful, quiet country life?
Some times of the day for sure.
Rush hour is the hour before sunrise and again when the orchard workers head home.
Mid day trucks, tractors, workers vans and cars.
Spring, summer, autumn there is little traffic after 7:00.

SEPTEMBER SHIFT
Usually about Labor Day the weather cools down. Last night it went below 50.
Much more pleasant for those toiling in the orchards and wild fire fighters.
The fires are slowing way down and we are back to mostly green AQI dots on the maps.
Cooler weather also lowers the plant demands for water. In a rationed irrigation year that’s good!
