Volunteers!

I was pulling weeds in the side yard, behind the compost pile, where nobody goes and thus the weeds have grown taller than me (it was hard work and a little terrifying) when what to my wondering eyes should appear, but five hale and hearty tomato plants. Now, the place where I was pulling weeds - in the side yard, behind the compost pile, where nobody goes - is actually the site of the previous compost pile, so I shouldn't really be that surprised. But really, these secret survivors are thriving and covered in flowers and fruit.

I think I might start watering them.
