Garden thieves!

I know I have had more than one ripe tomato in the past two weeks. I can't pinpoint it, but I theorize a garden thief. I'm tempted to camp out all day at the garden with a good book and a case of Bitburger so that I may catch the thief. I have my suspects (f-11 watch out!) and will act accordingly. Just an hour ago I purchased four fifty pound bags of rock salt. When I find the culprit, I will be the Rome to their Carthage. Let's see your heirloom tomatoes grow in super-saline soil sucker! The bad part is that I will be out of town for the next five days, and I have no one to water the garden for me in the interem. I think if I soak them heavily tomorrow, they will make it for five days. I have faith in my charges.
