You know, you are beyond right about Tomato Hurling being a sport, albeit and unofficial one. I had a feeling you would be a participant of the art LOL! If you ever get a steer, you'll have to let me know how you enjoy competing in that division of it!
I had to chuckle about the land envy, because you have a CREEK! All that lovely running water, heck, you could probably make a little wasabi pool!
And I am glad your tomatoes are doing well, soon we will both be hurling nightshades with glee!!
