Penny,

Just South of Dallas.  We planted several varieties of tomatoes and expected
to have fruit for a long period of time.  Instead, 80% of them were ready at
the same time.  Some of the peppers have finished, but still have bananas,
chocolate bells, jalapenos, and the purple ones.  The watermelon was a whim
(one 25-cent plant at Wal-Mart) but I have eight in the house and several
still on the vine.  I'll be visiting the neighbors this afternoon after
work, with watermelons in tow.

We decided that instead of a fall veggie garden, we will continue work on
our landscaping in the front, and wildscaping in the back.  Lots and lots of
gardening to do!
