Well, for what its worth I picked about 10 pounds of Janice-Kadota figs this morning -- which turn a golden yellow this time of year as they ripen in the "cool" (50 F) evening temperatures; plus 20 pounds of pineapple guavas the size of baseballs, an 8 pound pineapple papaya (aka Babaco), some chili peppers and "rose" eggplants. I sold nearly all of these at a farmer's market in the community of Valley Center today.

Long Beach CA is about a one hour drive from northern portion of San Diego County, and around an hour and a half drive from pitangadiego's place [provided of course you make the commute during sane traffic hours]. Depending on your schedule, I might not be able to come visit because I'll be further north in the Sacramento area the 6th through the 10th. However, MsKitty and the girls will probably fill you in on the garden-raiding mission to my home during my absence.
