Man, I think I might need to go outside and pluck a ripe tomato from the vine again. Here’s a picture of the first tomato sandwiches of the year. (Had a little cheese and mayo, too.)
They are definitely taking a long time. Even when they start with some color, they still need some more time on the vine. I guess it’ll be late August before I really see some larger crops instead of these coming one-by-one.
Hi, it's me, the guy whose name is at the top of the page. I'm the grinning dude in the middle of many of these pictures. Those are my boys Dan, Matt, and Steve. They're taller than me now, and take every chance to show me. What can I say? I'm shrinking. Sheryl puts up with all of us. She's been known to say "Boys!" from time to time.

Outstanding! Is it my imaginatin or are the tomatoes taking a little longer on the vine to ripen this year?

I wish I had these for lunch right now.

I could eat ‘em ALL summer. BLTs or just plain tomato and mayo.
No cheese though.
This is what’s for dinner tonight!

yummy! I can’t wait for mine to ripen!
I just pulled in another one. And there are at least 30 other tomatoes out there on 5 different kinds of heirloom plants.
That’s why you’re the Thinman and I’m the Fatman…it’s all about the cheese! I do like them plain, I must say. This is going to be my tomato summer.
