It just seems so unfair that here we are in the midst of a fabulous fall season with lingering colors on the mountainsides, balmy, almost warm weather, and holiday catalogs are already beginning to make an appearance in our mailboxes. At the same time, TV programing has begun the “Christmas Countdown.” If you are over 50 years of age you are probably saying, “Didn’t we just have Christmas recently?”

Oh, let’s ignore all that for a few weeks and be thankful that our Narrowsburg residents have not forgotten how to show off the beautiful fall season. The post-office garden seems to have been a real star throughout the flowering time of the year, and now it continues to please while reminding us of fall. Pumpkins and grasses adorn the front of the building, and of course, fall would not be as beautiful without colorful leaves. Mother Nature gives us color with the perennials that have been planted, and with a little bit of help from a friend, a few more fall colors appear in the form of red/rust color oak leaves strategically placed throughout the post-office garden. Thanks to those gardeners who recognize the fall season and take the time to coordinate all of the splendor in one garden for us to enjoy.
