This is the week that always starts Mimi and me thinking about all the projects ahead of us. I usually wake up early on one of the mornings this week with a huge desire to undress the Christmas tree and shove it out the front door and into the back of my truck.

Well, here we come down the homestretch. By the time this edition reaches homes and businesses, we will be a day away from Christmas. Hopefully, everyone has found a great Christmas tree and some poinsettias from their favorite local garden center.

We have moved into our last week to set our final Christmas plans. Our gifts are purchased and wrapped up under the tree. The packages for the people who won’t be coming to our home this year are mailed and, hopefully, under their Christmas trees at their homes.

The cooler temperatures have brought back a memory for me I can’t help but think about every time the cold moves in. When I was courting Mimi, I used to tell her stories about that crazy trip to northern India. We went on lots of hikes in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado and walked a 110 mile loop around Banff in Canada.

Life's a Garden: Thanksgiving in a Hubcap

This week, families will be making big decisions. The decision will be how, or if, to get everyone together for a feast, as is the tradition of every other Thanksgiving. Most likely some sacrifices will be made to protect ourselves from family coming in from other places to spend a couple days together.

We are heading into what I like to call my wrap-up week. There are some things in our yards that should have been done by now, or at least you should be wrapping them up this week. This is also the week that America celebrates Veterans Day.

Life's a Garden: Traveling with Mimi rewarding

MANY days when Mimi and I get home from work we are dirty, tired and excited. We are excited about the day we just had or we are excited about the day coming next. The cause of all this excitement could have come from having received a truckload of great looking plants from California we know customers will love.

As we roll into October there is a change in the air. We have finally reached the temperatures that make things change in our yard and in our spirits. The air is crisp because the humidity is lower and it seems like there’s less haze in the sky which always leads to that October sunburn.
