Our walk this week, see This Norfolk Life, was conducted in the rain. We were not looking forward to it as the forecast said heavy rain. As it turned out, it wasn’t too bad.
We walk in all weathers and only holidays or injuries stop us.
The rain has done wonders for the garden. Plants have stopped struggling, the front garden is full of lush, green plants and fat buds. Two of the rhubarb plants have developed fat crowns, waiting to burst forth.
My water butts are all full and the raised beds have had a thorough soaking. It might have been a bank holiday washout but the garden is thankful.
You're braver and more hardy than me, I hate walking in the rain. Especially if it's windy too (as it quite often is here).
ReplyDeleteIt was very windy at times but we had full wet weather gear on so were fine.
DeleteWe need some rain here, it is so dry.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Hope you get some soon. In our part of the county, we have had a dry winter.
DeleteMy garden looks much better after the rain too. I walk in wet weather as long as I have the right clothes. I'm not so keen on windy weather.
ReplyDeleteWe don’t mind what the weather is as long as we have the right clothing on.
DeleteIt's amazing how quickly plants revive after rain.

My plants seem to have doubled in size.
DeleteI must admit I am not a fan of walking in the rain but it is always good for the garden.
ReplyDeleteGarden has greedily received it all.
