Seed pods

I thought these looked cool. I'm not ready for summer to wind down, but it's that time of year. There are two weeks left of school vacation. Already the store circulars are advertising back-to-school sales. I can feel the days getting shorter, and our recent spell of chilly weather is a foreshadowing of the crisp fall days down the road.

Triffids?

But there still should be some good summer weather in the weeks ahead. The grapes are starting to ripen and the vegetable garden is producing. I'll need to cut the grass in the coming week. And there are other outdoor chores to do. Officially, fall is a little over a month away. Let's hope so.
