Rainy Day not so Blues

While I hesitate to say it, the garden could use a good rain.  The last time I expressed this opinion the NCR got a 3 week deluge that most gardeners and farmers with heavy soil have still not recovered from.  So while I welcome a rainy day, I hope it is more limited in scope than last time.  I hustled home last night and put in some spinach, turnips, daikon and beets.  The beets are probably wishful thinking, although a mild fall could help them mature before the inevitable freeze.  I can hardly wait for the first meeting of "Gardeners Anonymous" next spring.  Hopefully it will keep me from diving headfirst into another season of disappointment.
