Like Gardening Under Water

The water is in the air, in the ground, and bursting through plant life.  It's a flood of LIFE!  I leave for nine days and come back to a deluge of life. Bumblebees and butterflies; raspberries up to my nose. July is usually hot and dry here on the plains.  This year we get hot and under water.
A disappeared onion bed.  Chives in the lower left corner, a young hollyhock in the right, and the rest is, well, weeds.
Anna and the hollyhock, which is  fairly bloomed out.  Echinacea in front.
Here are the sweet potatoes two weeks ago, when I was pulling onions.
The sweet potatoes this morning.
At the top of this row you can see two rows of beans I planted 9 days ago.
 In the forecast?  98 degrees tomorrow.
