A Beautiful Fall Day

October 16, 2010 by Tricia

It was a nice Fall day here in Toronto. My husband and I decided that since it was so nice out we’d better get outside and get some of our outdoor work done.

I spent some time tidying up the front garden beds. Some of the roses had grown and their branches were starting to block part of the front walkway.

My husband has spent some time over the last month repairing the parging on our foundation at the side of the house whenever the weather has been nice enough to do this kind of work. He had finished repairing the parging, but it needed to be sealed so he spent some time sealing the foundation this afternoon.

It’s supposed to be nice tomorrow as well, so maybe we’ll do a little bit of work in our backyard garden. I know that my husband wants to take our Patio table apart and get it stored for winter.

Winter … man I can’t believe I’m saying that word already, but I guess it’s coming – and soon. It will really only be a couple of weeks, and then we’ll be outside hanging our led christmas lights. That’s definitely something we need to do before it starts snowing.

Did you have nice weather in your area today? Did you get outside and enjoy it? Are you like us, trying to get some yard work done before it gets too cold?

    Nothing can beat Great Fall Day in Toronto. It’s a best part of the year, in my opinion. Winter is not that good, but you are now enjoying a beautiful weather!

    I actually prefer gardening in the fall. I’m not a fan of slaving out in the summer heat. Plus, I always sleep really well after an afternoon of raking or planting bulbs.

    I cant believe how fast the weather has changed here. Seems like we have been plunged into winter in a matter of days! I keep feeling really cold – had no time to adjust gradually – better put on another jumper!
    Stay warm.
