Some of Dave's Photos from MAGTAG

[Cecilia_MD7a]

Here's a sampling of the photos that my husband Dave took last Saturday. Please let me know if I've misidentified anybody (or any tomatoes), and also let me know if you're in a picture and I've forgotten you!

First, a lovely assortment of tomatoes ready for tasting ...

Bonnie, before her second-prize medal was rudely taken away (her Boxcar Willie actually won 7th place - my bad)

Ceil (me) and Janet

Cynthia "putting up her Dukes" and me - unable to keep my big mouth shut, as usual.

A good view of my tomato-colored fingernails (although both Dave and Liz said they looked more like M&Ms

Sisters in Tomatohood

Help! I can't remember if this is Jacquie & Steve or Gladys & Arnie!

Tiger-like, looking scrumptious

During the judging: Forground: two of the Flynn girls, Wendy, Lynn T, Luanne, and (I think) Dominic; Background: Bonnie and Joe

I forgot to post a photo of the largest tomato, showing its weight on the scale. I'll have to wait to get home to get it. But this should keep you all satisfied for now!

Great pics!

Very nice bunch of pictures. We sure did have great weather.

As promised, here's the photo of the winner of the largest tomato competition, along with a couple other photos. Note that I did a little Photoshop work so that you can read the weight more clearly.
