Tonight I was watering the garden when I felt drops on my head.  Now it’s pouring a mother rain, as Cindy describes it (in contrast with a booming, flashing father rain).  Our garden needs it.

We’ve had wonderful days with two and three shifts of gardeners.  And we need more!  More hands to help, more mouths to eat.
