Rain, rain, go away!

We've been getting a LOT of rain lately. I like rain, and so does the garden, but the mosquitos also really like it. Yesterday we got anywhere between 2 and 4" (I've been hearing varying amounts) of rain in about 30 minutes. Someone decided at some point in our house's history to, sort of, build a wall around our backyard, creating the perfect space to hold water. Here are some pictures.


My cucumbers, trying to keep their heads above the water.


Sweet corn.


This picture doesn't show it very well, but I'm up past my ankles in water.


A view of Lake Bolthouse.


But hey, at least our basement is dry :)
