I'm jealous, our tomatoes are about a month behind thanks to a cool and wet summer. Fresh picked tomatoes taste like summer, exactly.
It's funny to see someone going 'yay blackberries!' They're a major, major weed around here. Totally invasive and they will take over everything if we aren't vigilant. I've seen it swallow houses, parks, yards, and team together with English Ivy to destroy whole forests. Blackberries=nuke it from orbit. I suppose it's different where you are however!
That's a big fat bumblebee, BTW, not a yellowjacket. Yellowjackets are wasps, and are made of pure evil. Bumblebees are native bees :)
