Disaster in the Garden

Perhaps it is "disaster averted"...Yesterday morning, I went to check out the garden and found that the two wire cages that had been supporting my "Moneymaker" tomatoes had collapsed. The plants were right at 6' tall and had a lot of tomatoes on them. Green and heavy tomatoes. I propped them up again and will be building a better and sturdier cage today. In the meantime, the tomatoes are standing about 4' tall and sprawled all about. They still look healthy and I am optimistic that they can be saved.

I'm sure my gardening daughter would have seen this trouble coming...you can't rely on those wire cages!
