at last!
Nad, you might get some from this one (if you are between Port Huron and Detroit) :). !!!
looks good for later tonight too for more (but i won't believe it until i hear it on the roof).
it was a perfect day to be out trimming a field and spreading it around (for green manure). i had just finished most of it and had only a little to go and the first sprinkles came down, hmm, i say, so i finish the last bit i could get done, wrap the cords up and get the trimmer in. stops sprinkling. of course. so i go back out and spread the trimmings around and pack a large bin (so i can feed the worm farm tomorrow morning) and used a bunch on the new rhubarb patch to give them some cover and more worm food.
took the hose out there and gave the whole area a good soaking as the clay was heavily cracked and i wanted to get the dry stuff wetted down to keep it from blowing. then i went and rinsed out the bird baths and got the bean patch watered.
nice to have a cloudy cooler day to get out there and get it done. last time i was out chopping last week i had sweat dripping off my nose so fast i had a trail.
now i can hear the tomatoes singing in happiness from getting some real rain for a change. the cherry tomatoes are just now starting to turn.
