While completing a "routine survey" of the garden today (as though any such journey is ever routine), I spied something extremely exciting!!! This year's first tomato! This is such an exciting moment I had to document it with a portrait. And share it with the world!
Here's the lucky little fella. He's a Rutgers variety heirloom. 
Isn't this just so exciting?
