Spa day

Meteorological autumn began last Monday, although it seems that autumn started a few weeks ago.

The ground is already littered with fallen leaves. 

Astrological autumn is marked by the date of the autumn equinox when both the northern and southern hemispheres have the same number of daylight hours. The date varies, but this year it falls on 22 September.

Dry Fountains

Last week we had some showery rain. It was enough to have us sheltering under trees for a few minutes, but not enough to penetrate the soil, so the watering can hasn't yet been retired.

My sister, who lives a short distance away, had heavy rain, but once again it didn't reach us.

There is less and less to water, so this task is becoming less dominant.

The water pressure issue has yet to be addressed; at this rate, the problem will leak into next year. Excuse the pun

I'm sure that if the problem had been sorted out, watering would have been far less time-consuming, and we would have been able to keep up with other tasks.
