I decided to pick the last of our tender vegetables (and figs) in preparation for the frost, and even though it didn't (quite) freeze over the weekend, I think it was a good decision.  Chances are our first frost will come sometime this week, so I didn't lose much ripening time by my preemptive action.

I also treated myself to the first fire of the winter since the trailer was a chilly 43 when I woke up Sunday morning.  That means I also had to admit our days of living on the porch are severely numbered, so I cheered myself up about the move inside by cleaning all the windows.  It's astonishing how different indoors life is when you can peer out through clean glass into the wider world.  Nearly as good as life on the porch...at least once you add in a warm fire and a happy cat.
