I hope the garden survives. We picked four ripe tomatoes, but there is still lots out there that I'd like to leave for a few weeks longer. The zucchini is just starting to come along, and there are lots more tomatoes on the vines I hope will ripen. I just looked at the indoor/outdoor thermometer and it's reading 51 degrees outside, so it may not get down to freezing. It's usually coldest just before sunrise, though, but I'm not likely to be awake to read the temperature then. Quite often Fred is, though, so we'll know have a report in the morning.
We were in St. Johnsbury this morning. The debris on Main Street where the fire was a few weeks ago has been cleared away. There is a large space that lets the morning sun shine onto the street and exposes a large window I think is called Gothic style, in the church. It appears to be covered to protect it - probably because of the demolition work and reconstruction that will be happening. I'm pretty sure some people unfamiliar with St. Johnsbur

In the process of getting that straightened out, I learned that Gina Kurrle, 68 Meadow Lane has bought the cottage at 64 Meadow Lane that belonged to the Smith family.
We will be watching the weather this weekend, with the storm "Danny" coming up the coast. It seems likely it will stay far enough away so we'll only get the rain, but things could change. Anyway, it doesn't look like the best of weather for the weekend here at Joe's Pond. Too bad, with the summer nearly over and having been so short, we could have used one more nice weekend before Labor Day. We will probably get some nice weather after this, though. September can be a really nice month. Everything seems to be a little off kilter weatherwise this year, so no predictions from here.
