Love Rainbows

We have had these amazing afternoon summer storms, almost every day for the past week or so. These pics are from the storm on Saturday.





I love love these storms, they cool everything off and bring much needed rain and are simply beeee-autiful . But....... We now have weeds that are almost as tall as me. And I swear they were not there a few days ago.
And maybe you green thumb gardener type peeps can tell me why in the very spot that I had THREE failed attempts at growing a garden there are now weeds with stems as big around as my finger???? And don't tell me try squash it will grow like a weed. Squash of any kind is my favorite and I could happily eat it every day. So 90% of what I planted in each garden attempt was for my own personal selfish reasons squash. Nothing, nadda, nilch made it.
Back to glass is half full :)
So after pulling weeds Sat and Sun the backs of my legs are s..o..r..e. The kinda sore that means it counts towards my workout. YIPPEE
