I never could have processed such a huge crop of tomatoes before. 8 quart jars plus used equivalent of another in tonight's spaghetti and meatballs. Tonights sauce used 1/4 paste tomatoes, 1/4 the other clustering tomato that are medium size and 1/2 the Arkansas Traveler's.
Yesterday I realized the Arkansas traveler pink tomato vines were out of control. So I tore them down. I couldn't reach most of the beautiful huge ripe tomatoes. Because the tomato towers had all fell over on top of each other under the weight.

At least 4 piles of vines |

This was filled with pink when done. Removed green and filled another bucket of just green.
So I wrapped the green in newspaper tonight as well and put in box with an apple.
But again my new friend!!!!
