grassland lies down after several days of heavy rain
I have a fairly strict policy of not complaining about the weather. That being said, the weather has been very interesting this year, with a tremendous amount of rain and unseasonably cool temperatures. It feels like a seasonal time warp mixup, with winter and spring expanding to swallow up the first half of summer. For some crops this situation has been very tremendously fortunate. We’ve never grown such productive stands of peas before. For other plant species, the climactic situation is less than ideal, though I expect that this weather, like everything, will pass, and by late august people here will be talking about the “longest, hottest summer we’ve ever seen”. Many people would be nothing but thankful to have such tremendous amounts of unpolluted, drinkable water falling from the heavens, and I intend to be as well.
