Hope that is a sign that the drought we have endured for the past year is nearing an end.

The extreme weather forecast for Texas is horrible! Watched a long term forecast on Fox News around noon. The drought in Texas is predicted to run well into 2012. Horrible!

Sure hope they're wrong.

Some good news, though. We are predicted to have a warmer than usual winter. Maybe we'll put off a frost until Christmas or later. I might actually get some tomatoes.

Sweet and hot peppers, cucumbers, and looseleaf lettuce is keeping the salad bowl filled. My Ichiban eggplant up and died. Crookneck squash seems to be thriving and so are the collards.

But them darn tomatoes just don't want to do nothin'

“Sure hope they’re wrong.”

Sure agree with that.

My father does remember a year we had no frost. Cotton plants suckered out the next year, some actually made 2 crops with 1 planting. That is odd.
