Last summer, something big was getting all my ripe large sweet tomatoes (Jazz, Orange Jazz). I loosely wrapped old tulle around the fruit so it wouldn't be so easy for him thinking if it were a raccoon, the tulle would be ripped off. Anyway, the tulle kept the animal at bay so I concluded it was an opossum.

I've never seen a mouse where we live; just rats; so if it were here, it would be a small rat.

Yesterday, I picked my first 2 large fruits; one was Brandy Boy and the other was Red Sweet Sue (my name for Sweet Sue plants that produce Red fruit).

I have another almost ripe fruit on Big Brandy that I will get off today.

I'm keeping tabs on production; just manual.

Last night it rained for the first time since early October.
