The tomato is working to fruit to ripeness. Yes, it is past the harvest time, but it is still trying. Since it is still trying I will still water it and will see what happens.

Over here in California the sun is still shining so there is some hope for this little tomato.

Isn't that like life? Somethings come to fruit towards ripeness a little late, but does that mean we have to tear the tomato plant down like most of done already? Well, I still have time. I'm not in a rush. Let it try to fruit to ripeness. If it won't fruit to ripeness before the freeze, then yes, I will tear it down.

Yes, the freeze is coming. Lately where I am, the freeze comes sometime in December, well lately anyway. It hasn't been cold where I am, but I do see that people from around the world and it seems to becoming colder and colder by the clothes they are wearing.

Well, I am in California, we are famous for sunshine. Some of you have even more sunshine than California. Well, I guess the weather is different for many.

Where I am we haven't had rain since September 16 of this year, but then we have been in our drought like weather for some years now. I think we are officially out of the drought, but we still have water restrictions, cause maybe they think the drought will come back.

Well, when the rain comes it comes pretty good. Costco has a sale of wiper blades for the car. It ends on the 27th of October. So my brother thought it would be a good idea if he got a pair while we would go shopping their next time.

I didn't even know his sizes for his car. I did check it out today. He has to use a 20 inch blade on the driver side and a 18 inch blade on the passenger side.

It is important to know what size you need, cause you don't want to get the wrong ones. Well, you might get away with it if it was only an inch off or so.

In my 91 Chevy S10 pickup my sizes are 16 inch blade for driver side and passenger side. A long time ago I use to think that both sides were same size. Maybe it was like that before on the older cars. Well, maybe much older than my cars and truck since my vehicles are pretty old already.

I remember one time when there used to be wiper blades at the 99 Cent Only Store for only 99 Cents. I should have just bought them all. Well, if they ever get to that price again I will do that.

In a Scotty Kilmer video, he says that the silicone wipers last for a very long time. It maybe worth buying, if one just does not like checking things, like the wiper blades. They will cost more, but will have to be changed less times than the regular wiper blades.

I just watch the video called, Never Buy These Wiper Blades, by Scotty Kilmer. In it he mentions that he had a car with the silicone wiper blades and it lasted for 12 years then he sold the car. Well, when he sold the car the wiper blades were still good. Well, then it would be worth it to by the silicone wiper blades.

Scotty Kilmer also mentioned that the auto parts store won't sell them as their customers always buy the regular wiper blades, but if they sold the silicone wiper blades then the customer will have no need to come back again, for wiper blades that is.

So they may sell it in the store, but if you can't find them there then just order them online.

Wiper blades are important, cause if you can't see that well through the windshield, during the rain, or snow or fog then you are at danger.

Let's get back to the tomato. Yes, where I am is still pretty sunny, but that won't last forever.

Let's end with some scripture, Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground? And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it: And if it bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down. Luke 13:7-9.
