Summer Rain

As I sit here typing this, I can hear the rain outside the window. It's hard to believe that not too long ago it was so hot in West Penwith that everyone was complaining and the gardens were in a great need of water. For the last two weeks it seems to have rained on alternate days. Still it keeps the pollen down but I don't imagine it's doing much for the harvest. I've seen a lot of tractors on the road recently hauling their loads and have wondered how they manage with all this rain going on.
