It’s not only starting to look like Autumn, with changing leaves and bizarre gourds from the garden, it’s starting to feel and smell like Autumn, meaning, after a few frosts and the first real rain of the season, time to bring and put up the tomatoes.
Another sign of autumn, the annual health insurance renewal along with the unveiling of the premiums. For those who have read the ‘blog’ this year, 2009 has not been fun all of the time. Between the Great Recession and what turns out to have been a bad ‘set,’ I often felt like I was being beaten on the back of the head with a wet sock filled with sand, which means I’ve got it a lot better than most. However the latest whap to an already sore neck was the proposal for next year’s health coverage, both for myself, my family and our employees.

Laurence–
Excellent. Good writing, good photographs, good insight. Thanks for the very clear discussion of our insurance problem. We’ve got ourselves into a depressing mess, but it looks like there might be some hope on the horizon. Fingers crossed.
