We finally got had a nasty thunderstorm come through just after dark several days ago. We've been having extreme heat and no moisture for a record breaking length of time. While the rain did nothing for the grass on the lawn, the weeds sprang up almost violently the next day. And, on the bright side, some of the flowers are making a comeback. In addition, Jeff's multiple trips to irrigate the veggies have paid off. We're harvesting tomatoes, onions and cucumbers. The lettuce continues to grow - it is in shade most of the day now. And Jeff says we'll have bell peppers some time next week. The carrots still need a bit more time, but thier greens have really taken off since the rains came.
