Sounds good Kevin. Hope you didn't get an overabundance of rain yesterday. Our 2.6" has slowed my gardening plans . John

Kevin,

I know you are anxious, so don't work the ground wet. You will pay for it.

I need less rain. Heavy downpour,every afternoon, this week. Haven't been able to touch the garden, since Sunday. Luckily, I weeded on Sunday, when I got home from the Bash, or I wouldn't be able to find the plants! (Woodchucks found the beans) Ed

I know how you feel, you must be in the same no rain belt that we're in. Chance of a thunderstorm tomorrow night. I watch the rader and the rain just disappears before it gets near my place. I just hope for the best.
