Fall Is Here, Early

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.

A Gray, Overcast, Cold Monday

It's cold and overcast here in Hollister on this November Monday.  I did no serious work today, just messed around with Photoshop some more.  I now know how Kimberlin Unmasked makes those great comics and I am all set to make some myself.  But, I can't think of anything funny.  Well, all the Democrats making excuses for the Obamacare disaster might prove grist for the mill, but they are more pathetic than humorous.
