October has started gloomy as well, and rainy.
Both clematis vines are back in bloom -- Henryii out front, and Alba Luxurians by the patio wall.

In between rain drops I fussed with re-edging the garden in front of Meadow's Edge. I softened some of the sharp curves and tried to round the ends more.
It was muddy, hard work. Surprisingly, a lot of sod must be removed just to round out the edges. More to do. It still isn't right yet.
The whole garden needs more width, a bigger footprint. Eventually the grass path between it and the front of Meadow's Edge will become a real path. That space will be a short woodland walk, hemmed on both sides by gardens and shaded by trees.

| The curve looks okay from the patio straight on, but lengthwise it's still not right |
