Allison, your positive outlook is amazing! I am located close enough to you, that I too can’t catch a break with the rain. I prefer to whine and carp instead.

 

How much help are your tunnels when the ground is soaked? Have you trenched around them to lower the water table? Does the lack of wind and sun work negatively with tunnels?

 

I really enjoyed your book on tunnels.

Ah, but isn't this one of the big reasons we all do market growing (besides the big money of course!) ?  The everlasting chase after the perfect season.  The more we know, the more we want/need to know and no season is the same.  What a challenge!  What fun!  (Well, most of the time.  I do wish it would stop raining long enough to get some crops in the ground)
