Not really healthy for a horse that is prone to founder. The grass spiders are particularly bad this year - John should be able to tell them there s nothing good to eat in the house anyway, might as well stay outside. But they don t listen. I frantically double check my frost date and seed maturity dates to see if I can squeeze another crop in. I always feel so let down when I see how close that first frost date is.
Summer really is over.
Not that I m not ready for cooler weather. I wonder if my acorn squash can hold out for the cool weather or if it will just melt into the soil during the heat of the day. I started last year. August - a time of summer ending, fall almost beginning. It just might rain today and those green beans just might sprout in time for the one last crop before the frost comes.
