Drenched

_{It rained all night before which meant no work was possible in the garden as the field was completely drenched. I did not want to start the mud ball rolling either so I went for a long walk instead.}

_{The enchanted meadow is recovering after being molested by the owners of the land. Still don’t get why they dug it up and then never used it.}

_{Oak trees are so powerful and often sacred. My grandmother had an oak tree behind her home. At difficult times, she visited it and placed her hands on its trunk to receive the strength from it. I always found that fascinating and magical. I don’t have an oak tree. I have a pine tree. Maybe I will share some more one day.}

_{Field of rye}

_{Reaching the river before heading back toward the village}

_{I stopped by my garden on my way back to capture a bit of progress there as well.}

_{@tarazkp said that flies can be beautiful creatures too, so I believed him. I need a lens upgrade for close up shots though.}

_{Grasshopper chilling on the flower too}

_{Hmm, anyone knows what the name is for these? I always wonder.}

_{Verbascum thapsus}

_{Lavender is almost ready for harvesting! Third harvest since planting!}

_{I should do the garden update soon. There has been quite a growth and also quite a battle with weeds and pests attacking some of my plants, unfortunately. I don’t use any pesticides, so it is a challenge to keep some of them alive.}

_{Despite crows eating all my early cucumber seedlings, I managed to grow some more under frost coverings. Sometimes I feel like they sit in the trees nearby and observe me planting and they recognize what I plant too xD those clever bastards!}
