It's been a rainy summer

I can't remember a summer where it rained so much as it has been for the last couple of months. Well except maybe in Ireland, but it was expected. I don't mind the rain, I'm just surprised! It's been a chilly summer as well, but that doesn't stop the baby animals being born. I wonder what autumn and winter will bring. The good thing about wet weather and a combination of sun, you get mushrooms. Mushroom season is early this year as it usually hits autumn. We're pretty happy about that.

One of the many rainbows this year. This is another reason why I like rain in the summer.

Rain drops on my hollyhocks.
