it’s been fun watching the tomatoes grow over the season…

last week they started to turn orange and then red…

a few, closer to the bottom of the planter, were taken off the plant, had a few bites out of them, and I found them on the ground…

I decided to leave them there and a few days later discovered they were completely gone… just an outline left on the stepping stone, lol…

today I went out to pick the ripe ones only to discover that they all had large bruises on them…

decided to compost them, sigh…
