This week is flying by. It has been busy, but a great deal has been accomplished. Before it got dark this evening I finally gave in and picked all of the tomatoes that were out on the vines, red, green and all colors in between. No longer will I be playing the game with the October weather of going out in the late evening and covering them up, only to go out again in the early morning to uncover them. Tonight marks the official end to the Albrecht growing season. It is already down into the 30s, and will probably reach the upper 20s by morning. Earlier today it was very nice, with sunshine and a high of 61 degrees. Tomorrow will be another sunny day, but it will be a few degrees cooler than today. We should top off in the upper 50s. As I have been talking, or writing, about the real chill hits on Friday and lasts through the weekend. Temperatures on Friday will probably not even get to 50, and if we get there Saturday and Sunday we won't get much above it. The nights will be very cold for early October, down into the upper teens to low 20s.
Tomorrow I will be picking Beth up at the airport at about 1:30pm. She is planning to go to the Gonzaga Prep football game at Joe Albi Stadium tomorrow evening. I hope she is bringing her long underwear back with her from the frozen tundra of Minnesota. It will be a cold one out there tomorrow evening. I will be safe and warm at a meeting at church tomorrow night.
