Hurricane Hermine is over with here. I had stowed away stuff which could blow away and secured the gardening pots to the best of my ability. When I went outside this morning it was easy to see how the plants had been beaten down by the wind and rain. Straightened out what I could and in the process discovered that several large, ripening tomatoes have vanished! Looked around on the ground and in the vegetation to no avail. Three things could have happened: 1 - a human took them; 2 - an animal took them; or the wind blew them away. At any rate, it is a mystery what happened to them. Ate my first tomato last week. Very tasty
Next hurricane, harvest the tomatoes. Wash let dry and wrap in paper. They will ripen and be quite tasty. LOL
