The Downey's Own Little Piece of Heaven on Earth


• Sunday, August 3, 2008 - Rain!

It's been a long time since I've seen so much rain!  For the last 3 weeks, it rains nearly every afternoon or overnight.  I have this weekend off- 4 days, Friday through Monday.  It poured rain non-stop on Friday, so Saturday during the day it was too wet to work in the yard-- we just sunk to our ankles in the mud.  I was hoping that today would be better, but again, it's rained overnight and it's still drizzling.

The weeds have taken over, and it's so wet that my squash is rotting before it can grow.  :sigh:..... We need some sunshine to dry it out so I can work outside.  Something tells me that come next Friday-- when I have to work the whole weekend, we'll have sun!

Happy Sunday to everyone!

Yes, we got more rain last night, it poured in the evening through til this morning. The sun came out for a bit awhile ago, but it's gone back in. We got about a half hour of picking beans in yesterday- so I've got some to can today. I just don't know what we'll do if it doesn't dry up some-- so much is rotting where it grows- and it's so darn hard to pick in the mud!
