Default Wow! It got cold here

Central MS has had two frosts. One quite substantial. The fish have
decidedly slowed eating.

Tomatoes redden, but to not ripen after picking. That is why store
tomatoes have such poor taste as compared to vine ripened tomatoes.
Essentialy, store tomatoes are vine-unripened.
