First Tomato!

Hooray! The first tomatoes!
These are Howard German, a paste tomato.
Delicious!
These are the first tomatoes in TWO YEARS!
Last year, all 35 plants were destroyed by late blight.
It had been a very wet, cool summer.
This summer is perfect - warm, sunny, just enough rain.

On another note:
Tommy has discovered that the orchard is full of "balls" to play fetch with,
and you can eat them, too.
So at 5:30 this morning, he and D were playing.
Needless to say, I missed it!
