I am surprised this year over last. Last year on 1 sept the skies turned grey and the temp dropped. It is supposed to cool off later this week but we have had sun and 75 almost every day since the first of sept. 60% of the trees have turned and it has been a fantastic fall here. 5 PM and I am wearing my shorts and T shirt. The locals can't believe it. Still picking the last of the tomatoes.
