We're now to September 23rd and summer for all intents is still here. It's warm during the days, and after a quick break of only view days, the humidity has returned. That's means no sunrises in the morning, and sleeping with doors and windows closed at night.
I think it was in the upper eighties today, but I never checked. It's very dry. I watered the yard for about an hour this evening. We have lots of bluegrass in our yard and it doesn't take to dry weather very well.
The one good thing is our tomato plants are doing exceptionally well. We've picked over fifty tomatoes off of our six plants in just the last two weeks. We'll have tomatoes into October. The really stange thing is that they are some of the best ones we've had this year.
There's is one thing you can be sure of when you are growing things. It's very hard to predict how a growing season will turn out. We do need rain before the leaves really get serious about falling or we're going to a huge risk of forest fires here in southwest Virginia.
