At least the yellowjackets are gone

The mosquitoes, however, are hanging on, even in the mid-day. I planted a new Bourbon, the Souvenir de Malmaison, shortly after noon today, and wound up with four mosquito bites for my trouble. Hey, it’s already October, and the nights are in the upper fifties. So where’s the fall we usually get around this time? You know, the one where the yellowjackets and mosquitoes give it up for another year? At least we don’t have any kudzu.
