Perfect Timing

Whew. Mother nature saved me a bunch of work today.
It’s been dry here for a while. I took Mason fishing on Memorial day, and we had a hard time finding worms due to all the dry dirt. Over the weekend we planted/seeded/transplanted just about everything we had in the works for this year. Last week’s tomato transplants were looking good, but I figured I’d have to start shipping water to the farm to get everything off to a strong head start.
Woke up this morning to rain.
Other quick updates: Finished our barn board picket fence in town, ran some electrical in the crib, mowed the farm, cleaned up all the branches/logs/trees that had been scattered about. There are a few piles left to clean up, but at least they are near the edges and getting smaller. There were a few little inside jobs at the house that were also done.
There were also some interspersed bike rides and runs from all of us too.
Can you post a picture or send me a picture of your barn wood siding turned picket fence? I have been wanting to do this for over a year, but my loved ones believe it will be a bad idea. I think it would be perfect! Thanks!
