When It Rains, Hoe Boy, It Pours!

Five and 3/10ths inches in 36 hours here. After about 2 weeks of no rain. Quite the wash out.

I hoed today and monday, and am 10 rows deep. I plan on going out again this evening and being done with the field by at least Saturday.

The tomatoes are starting to turn, I'm getting a lot of cherry tomatoes but they haven't made it to the market yet because they're just too good eating.

My tomato trellis end-posts aren't quite anchored well enough, and the pulling tension combined with the sudden rains have made a few of them lean. Toads have taken up residence in the ensuing 2 inch gaps created by the leaning posts.
