What better to way to mark the beginning of fall than to harvest? Finally, after neglecting the garden all summer, I got to get my hands dirty again. Squash, slug-munched cabbage (that should have been picked long ago, before the slugs had their chance), onions (that also should have been pulled long ago before the rain drenched them over and over again), potatoes, beets, tomatoes, and apples. Apples! It's time for cider!

| Apples for cider.... |
 |
| Apples for eating.... |
 |
| Cider apples in the grinder..... |
 |
| Grinding.... |
 |
| Ground apples waiting to be pressed..... |
 |
| Cider! |
 |
| And while the cider is pressing, a little tour. Looks like fall, doesn't it? |
 |
| The only two zinnias to survive the weeds that I didn't get to this summer.... |
 |
| My favorite flower of fall. Isn't that just the most amazing pink and orange combo? |
 |
| Taters. Yum! |
 |
| Half the onions. |
 |
| Something pretty. |
 |
| Cider! |
