That's good information. I too have the concerns about the remaining
tomatoes in the neighbor-shocking front-yard garden. I picked about a
half-dozen wave last week. Interestingly, the skins are somewhat
mottled and kind of tough. Tomatoes are good though. Some have started
to ripen, and there are still quite a few greenies.

I haven't heard that there's supposed to be frost in STL that soon. The
ten-day forecasts online show lower 40s at one point. Highs only in the
50s and 60s though, which will sure slow them down.
