We are caught up on the rain - meaning they say we are out of the drought!! We had 8++ inches in May and so far this month we are over the 2 inch mark. This also means that we are lucky to have two days of sun in a row.
I have gone tomato wild this year. So far I have 21 including; yellow pear, Mr. Stripey (heritage), Mountain pride, Better boy, Roma, Cherokee purple (heritage), and German pink (heritage). I have about 1/2 determinate and 1/2 indeterminate. Hopefully we will have a great harvest and I can can some sauce. The sauce I canned last year tasted great and I just loved reaching into the cupboard, grabbing a jar, opening it and knowing that I did this.
While we were working on enlarging the fence (in the vain hope that Fergus, the escape artist, would say in) we found that we have some giant snails! These two seem to be racing to the top of the stump.
I won! I won!

Snails are so cute in cartoons and other people's gardens. They are evil in mine.
I love those snail photos! I take photos like that in my garden as well. Only people like us find joy in that. :)
I also went tomato wild as well but not nearly as much as you! We have about 9-12. I can't remember exactly. lol.
You told me you had a tomato on the way, but I didn't realize it was only 1 of 21 varieties! shoo eee, girl! You did go tomato wild!
