Under Tupperware Skies

Departing Storm
Originally uploaded by tpl108.

Capping off eight straight days of rain, this weekend brought nearly six additional inches of rain to the grange. Few things hold up well to a half-foot of rain, not to mention the 40 mph winds left in the storm's wake. The marigolds have just about had it and the tomatoes look downright haggard, which is probably for the best because the neighbors are starting to talk, bandying about words like eyesore, public nuisance, and ship box. Why they think my plants have anything to do with shipping is beyond me.
