Harvest: rain = tomatoes and cucumbers

Yesterday afternoon, I managed a little time to go do some picking after all the rain from the previous few days.

There was a little bit of damage in the garden.  As I expected, the corn took the brunt of the damage with about 1/5 of the total leaning over to the side.  I need to start putting conduit strings around the rows of corn to help deter this in the future.

As for the harvest, there are a number of tomatoes that have splits thanks to all the rain.  That being said, it's not as bad as I expected.  We also have a number of large cucumbers that we harvested.



Not shown was a second-picking in the early evening of 6 cherry tomatoes and one of The Boy's cucumbers.  The picture only shows what I harvested in the early morning.
