Default tomato plant never did produce

The huge plant never did produce any tomatoes. I did cut it back some, as someone said to stress it. But still nothing. Lots of flowers but not one tomato... Plants in the back have produced many though. More than I-- or the squirrel-- can eat. Was a good year. Have had a second crop and maybe a third depending on when frost comes.

Something weird. I have mushrooms in my front yard. Three big ones. About 6-8". Usually, this time of year the yard has brown spots from all the heat and lack of rain, but this year lots of rain. Not even the hostas turned brown this year and they always have in mid to late summer. Sometimes, there are mushrooms in spring but I've never seen ones so large as this. And it is September!
