First Frost. [View all]

Last night, patchy but pretty hard.

It's ok with me, it was a rough year all around for the garden, starting with a string of 80/90 degree days in March, followed by hard freezes in late April, drought and heat in June and July. Crazy year.

Let's hope 2013 is a better season.
