yesterday we had a hailstorm… it started as a bit of rain, then a thunderstorm, and then it turned into this crazy pounding of pieces of hail that went from pea to marble sized…

it happened around five and there was still lots left at nine-thirty…

the garden seemed to get it much worse than the front yard…

the poor baskets took a real beating… fingers crossed that they all come back…

this morning I discovered that two of the cucumber plants had been nearly broken in half, so I created splints for them and we will see if they recover…

what a sight…
