It was time to hit the fields again and weed. This time was all hand weeding. Wow – was I ever grateful for our willing workers who came out for a looonng morning! They got a little wet; they fought the mosquitoes, but they did a great job. I was also grateful for a cool morning in which to work. We’ll need a few more hours to finish up, but I (for one) will have to wait a few days until I can walk again – sheesh! My thirty-something muscles are letting me know I am no longer one of those teenagers out in the field.

Right after we were finished, it began to rain again. I am still thankful for the rain God sends, but we could use a day or two to dry out. I can’t believe I just wrote that considering last summer’s drought!
