Persimmons |
Fall officially begins on September 22 of this year (2014). However, the weather has been fall-like in Hollister for the past couple of weeks. Today, September 2nd, the temperature is 61 degrees Fahrenheit, rather chilly. The sky is overcast, resembling that of Washington State more than that of California.
My persimmon tree is full of fruit, and the fruit is already quite yellow. Persimmons are usually ready to pick by early November.
I like this time of year. The chill is in the air, and smells sweetly of dying grasses.
