The leaves are starting to fall (in particular, into the pond), so I spent today’s last 30 minutes of daylight covering the pond with netting. The weather has been decent, so I haven’t turned off the pump yet, but given the cooler extended forecast, that will be happening soon.

I still have a few things that need to be done outside, but it’s getting difficult to accomplish anything during the week since it’s getting dark so early. Hopefully I will be able to catch a half decent day one of the remaining weekends in October, though things aren’t looking good for this weekend.
