It's been raining nonstop here too! So much it's just soggy in the yard, some of my garden has white fuzzy stuff growing on it, and it's going to take a month of sun to dry the yard out! Ugh, we can't even drive on the yard to get water to our cistern for fear of sinking so we have to get water delivered!We have gotten 7 inches of rain over the weekend, and more is predicted for tonight and tomorrow. I haven't done much but pull the potted garden plants under the covered back patio. It has been raining nonstop!
I am also trying to get ready for a vacation, for 10 days! Packing for a family of four for 10 days, with airline luggage regulations is not easy.
My neighbor is going to take care of the animals and chickens, and water the garden as needed. So I am also trying to get all the pet and chicken food lined out and set out for easy access. I don't know if they will do much cleaning with the chicken coop (we scoop poop daily), so we may come back to a yucky mess. Our run is a semi deep litter, but the inside of the coop is raised, so we use sand and scoop it daily.
Hopefully my plants survive... last year blight tore through my garden because it seemed like it rained for 19 weeks straight.
