Nice lookin tomatoes there. Nothin says summer time like some blt's with fresh toes or a nice slice on a burger. Yours must be early due to global warming!! 
I was lucky with my plants and I was able to get them to overwinter, so by mid-May I had tomatoes out my wazzoo. I was picking 35-50lbs every week. It's ok though, everyone gets marinara sauce and salsa for Christmas this year.
What kind of tomatoes do you grow? I grow hybrid better boys, hybrid romas and an heirloom variety that is a cherry tomato the size of a golf ball. Next year it's all heirlooms as they seem taste much better than the home depot hybrids.
Happy pickin'!

On the road workin.
Boy talk about being 1 upped??????
How do you over winter them??????
I have several heirloom tomatos to try this year.
You cannot go wrong with brandywine.
It is late season, but worth it.
As well as Mortgage lifter.
I am trying mule team this year.
Hot and dry is when it is supposed to excel.
Will know later.
Hope the bad storms did not wipe out crop.
Will know when i return.
