Default Oops! and Yikes!

Hi,

The first photo illustrates the "oops!" part of this post..... I was out in the garden harvesting tomatoes and stopped to take a few photos. I was moving around and backing up in my wheelchair to get into a better position and, well... the photo shows the sad results. After realizing what happened, I picked up the two tomatoes that were still more or less intact and managed to drop them to complete the descruction. About 2 lbs of perfectly ripe black krim and indian stripe - never to be savored (although they did give off the most wonderful aroma that brought me a few moments of pleasure <g>!). Oh well..... after the initial disappointment, it was good for a laugh - tomato "road kill" LOL!

The last photos illustrate the "yikes" part of this post ..... I discovered some critter damage on a couple of tomatoes - a first for me. I've noticed more squirrels around .... could they be the culprits? (Looks like they preferred the wolford wonder to the Dona).
