As Gareth mentioned, a killing frost in areas of the North East.
Did anyone else feel like the Titanic.....that sinking feel that you
might be leaving a chile or mater as you try to pick the best ones
while the others not mature enough are yelling pleadingly "pick me,
pick me"???
I picked a lot of stuff and then covered the rest with heavy tarps
and hoped for the best. We certainly got a heavy frost, only around
27 degrees this morning on the way to rock pile (read "wirk"). Tis
the season but sad for sure. The carribeans put out a few but habs
very immature.
I did look kinda funny as I juggled several collendars full of stuff,
stopping every few feet to pick those that overfloweth to the ground.
......nice weather coming the next 4 days or so tho'.
