   We had intense thunderstorms all night. I was woken up multiple times by incredibly loud thunder (doesn't look like anything nearby got hit... but that's what I thought for several hours before the fire department came to put out a smoldering 1200 lb hay bale a couple years ago...so we'll see)

   But we got 2 inches of rain! We needed that rain so badly.

   And I harvested the very first tiny (but delicious) tomato. This is the latest we've ever had the first tomato 🙄
