Soggy

 

The summer solstice was a cool, rainy one here. It poured buckets and buckets. Instead of curling up on the couch with a cup of tea and my knitting I was on the road and turning a heel in the car. We needed a grocery pick up and since the weather only looked worse for the next few days, off we went.  

I also needed some bags of potting soil for my new tomatoes. I got drenched picking them up in the Walmart parking lot which was a small river. 

I bought some big grow bags for them since I had pitched the buckets I had used the last time I tried this folly. 

I had taken the tomatoes out of their containers when I got them home. They looked so unhappy in their tiny pots. I put them temporarily in the big pots I use for fleece prep not realizing it was going to be an all day soaker. They are swimming out there. I hope they'll be okay until I get a break in the weather.
