We have not had a day without rain. It rained all day yesterday, and all night and it's raining this morning. In fact, I went out to pick asparagus yesterday when I saw we got a slight break, but the rain poured down as I walked to the asparagus patch. Three stalks of asparagus got picked anyway.
The garden tilling was not done as we were planning yesterday. May is finicky, so I'm not going to guess. I'll just keep making back up plans and get other "stuff" done around here.
I have enjoyed the little bit of porch time (most days have been on the chilly side), sitting and listening to the rain. The flowers are enjoying the rain too, as well as the herb garden. I'm just glad we have not planted the vegetable garden yet, although seeds would have been a blessing to have gotten in before this rain. The evenings are still in the low 40's, and too cold for tomato plants or other vegetable plants.
Right now, it's just a saturated muddy mess, so we can't even get into the garden at all.
