This shot was taken several weeks ago. Not a bad morning harvest. I do have to take note of the unusual weather we have had this summer. It all began with rains that lasted into late spring (effectively making it impossible for the yellow jackets to get their nests established - ha!) The remainder of the summer up until August 25th was a constant fog pattern - cool and foggy till noon, mild sunshine, then fog returning in the evening. There was a joke going around about everyone having to eat green tomatoes all summer. Anyway, yesterday the heat blasts in at over 100 degrees in several neighboring cities and BAM! The tomatoes are softening like butter, the beets are wilting, the peppers have burns and the melons are cracking. Good grief!! I've got to make roma tomato sauce NOW or never! The grape harvest has been pushed out about 2 weeks. (would normally be under way by now)
But hey, the CL camping trip was ideal so what the heck. Checkin' in later...
