First Tomatoes.

I'm not going to say that tomatoes are more important than constitutional democracy, baseball, icecubes, or subject-verb agreement, but I'm saying that they make that list.


I think these are Cherokee Purples. I lost the tag. Tag or no, though, it's a good way of marking high summer. More coming behind these. Cool and dry here in 27408. Cool for the season, anyway. Good thing we have other barometers.
