Crystal in late August.


She looks a big ragged but fruit production is in full swing. We have eaten one and it was very good. Skin seemed thinner than some of Beulah's. The plant doesn't look all that good but I think all the energy is going to the fruit.

We are getting some rain and it is not a great weekend. Neither Mike nor I are feeling very well, cold, flu, bacterial junk-who knows but staying home is ok. We did go to see Inglorious Basterds and it was fun. Who doesn't love Brad Pitt and Quentin. Even popcorn here costs $6.85 for a Med bag!

It seem like fall happened all of a sudden. We are not ready for it. Time goes to fast. Maybe we will get a few days of sun this week. I think the tomatoes need it.

And how do I leave them in a few weeks? Mike asks if I have someone to give them to. Not really. Will they just rot on the vine? I have babied them all summer and all the other plants and snow will just come and cover all of it. Seems odd to me after living in CA where geraniums never die....
