The decent rain this morning will help the apples. I’m particularly looking forward to having a Zestar! apple from the tree I planted a couple of years ago. Zestar! is early and a bit tart. I tried one already and there is still too much starchiness. This rain should help them get bigger and sweeten them.
It is different for a retiree when it rains. Outdoors activity slows or stops. We take up indoors tasks that may have been long neglected. Or maybe, I put up the garage door and just watch the rain fall.
There is a lot going on in Iowa right now. Before I deal with that, I just need to breathe a while.
