Ran out between the raindrops to pick some herbs for dinner — and snap a few photos. Nothing like the sheen of rain water on the garden.
When the sun comes out again, I should have a nice crop of daylily blooms.

Yes, indeed! As some daylily people say, water is the best fertilizer.

Everything looks so clean! My garden already has a thin veneer of dusty dirt, which will probably remain in place until October.

I am envious of your rain. Everything looks so healthy and full of promise. Here we are told by the weather man that we aren't in a drought we are just considered abnormally dry. Hmmmm I don't want to find out what drought is...again. Maybe it is the new norm.

It's funny, I didn't think of this as a rainy week, although it did rain off and on throughout the week. The garden is happy. The reserves of moisture will help as the heat hits, but it's really going to be hot for the next 10 days, so I think I'll have to do much more watering than I have been doing. Your photos are magical, as always.
