Default End of summer?

yep summer is definately ending and autumn approaching.


The rowans are positively weighted down with berries this year!
Spectacular. I wonder if they enjoyed all the rain in the spring, the
dry in summer, or the combination.

We have a rowan planted near the house for a traditional ward, (when your
house is called "the suffering" and the village "the coffin", you need
all the help you can get ), which has never had much fruit, but this
year it's laden.
