Nadia made some nice autumn displays in the garden. With the colder weather approaching and the summer basil withering out, we switched to colder-weather plants, including ornamental kale, hardy chrysanthemums, and pumpkins. Nadia loves the seasons with few hay bales and lanterns, has turned our patio into a fall garden. Chrysanthemums originated in China and have become garden favorites all over the world because they bloom in November.
My Uncle Jack is visiting from the USA. He is 76 years old and still able to travel and is very young at heart. He is an inspiration for me as I get older, I hope I can stay as active and healthy as him. It is nice to have another person in the house. He is an excellent cook and we’ve had some good meals while he is here. I snapped this photo of Ocean and Jack taking Obi out for his nightly walk in the mahalla.
I also got a cool fall jacket from the Bershka store the Tashkent City Mall. Nadia and Ocean love having a proper shopping mall in the city. I am not a big shopper and it is good that Jack and Nadia found it for me.
It is the last weekend of Fall Break and I’ll do my best to stretch it out before we head back to school on Monday.
