Rain!!!!

After an exhaustively hot day we have rain!! Not just sprinkles, but
    real
rain! Our well has been acting up lately so any rain is a blessing, but a good heavy rain like we have this evening is twice as good! We managed to harvest two cucumbers today, and two large zucchini. In other news, something has been devouring our beefsteak tomatoes, but I was unable to find anything on them but a roly poly and several sugar ants. We managed to mulch around the zucchini plants and cucumbers late yesterday afternoon, and it seems to be helping already. Most of our watermelons appear to be doing well, at least the ones who are mulched. The UN-mulched melons were wilting badly from this heat we have had. I can hardly wait until the weather cools off some!
