We got what we needed!

This gorgeous photo by ansofic of raindrops on tuscan kale on Flickr represents today's weather in New Jersey, USA. Rain, slow, steady rain. After weeks and weeks of too little or no rain, we are finally getting wet. I hope it rains for 2 more days, just this slow steady drizzling to sink in deep in the soil to all the water-starved roots. It is too late for many trees and shrubs around here, many have already dies, but it will save some. For our vegetable garden it will be a great beginning on the fall-winter season too, even if those seeds are not yet in the ground. But by the end of the week, they will be!
