Very cool looking picture with the coloured glass ...
Those tomatoes look great. I'm in Z5, but am no where near that stage - when did you start/transplant?

They look great! I'm jealous, since I'm still waiting for anything besides cherry tomatoes to ripen. I thought I had my first Marianna's Peace starting to blush earlier in the week, but that was due to BER!

How come your are getting fruits so late? you are in a good zone. I was just in Palo Alto recently. Nice climate. Marianna's Peace, I would like to grow that next year. Good luck. Let me know if you like the taste. dcarch

Ciao Kim,
If it makes you feel any better, I planted out the weekend after the May 2-4 weekend (remember how cold it was then?) and the only things blushing in the garden thus far are on Whippersnapper (in Munchkin's garden), Kimberley (ha! there ya go), and Sungold F1. Thanks so much for those seeds, John...so I only got 1/6 to germinate, that one plant is putting out TONS of full trusses and I'm counting on it to be the real deal I remember 2 years ago. Cheers!
