RAIN!!!

We have had enough rain already. It averages about half an inch every three days. Can't get into the gardens to pull weeds and they LOVE the rain. It is getting ugly in there.

We have over 100 tomato plants out and between the temperature and the rain, they are just sitting there. I guess we will have late tomatoes. I just hope they don't rot. The ground is pure mud in most of the garden.

Come July and August we will burn up and there will be no rain. Sometimes i just don't think it is worth the effort. But, we will probably keep doing this and keep complaining every year. That is what we do, I guess.

I hope you are having better luck with your garden. Happy growing!!

SUN!!!!

The sun is trying it's best to come out. It sure looks good. Hopefully the rain is over for a few days. The creeks and rivers need time to go down.

A lot of people had water in their homes again. One year almost to the day since last May flood. I sure hope this is not going to be the norm every year. We can do without it.

It will probably get as dry as it has been wet as the Spring and Summer go.

Tomatoes will be going in the ground this weekend. I'm tired of trying to keep them from falling over in their little pots. Some of them are about 18" tall. They are healthy though.

My little "friends" at their home. They are busy all over the place.
It has been dry and they have not made much honey.
With the rain we've had, I hope they can make enough to get through
the winter.

Cloudy and pleasant Saturday

I got up this morning and it was a little cloudy.
I don't mind cloudy, in fact it was a good day to get in the
garden without burning up.

That didn't happen. Had other things to get done.
We have been dry for about a week now. So about noon, we got a small shower.
Not much but it was better than nothing. I'm sure the plants are loving it.

I have found a site that is just wonderful. It is called bagsbyannieg.com
She is a fabulous seamstress. She makes different things. You just need to go
to her site and shop, shop, shop. She does a very professional job on her items.
