The blast of rain blew off one of the gutters on our rental cabin. Everything inside was dry but the tube will need mending...
Our radishes are getting near the point of thinning but I'll skip that chore till next week. Looks like no asparagus this year. Can't figure that out.

We actually lived in our house for 35 years before we put guttering in, and never had a problem with indoor dampness. Of course Hubby built our house, and he made sure to it all just right.

Our interest in gutters was to be able to channel the water better for rain collection.

I am glad you had no water damage indoors.

I’m a newby at many of these things, especially asparagus.

I was gifted with some asparagus roots this year, but the weather has been so cool, we haven’t tried to plant it yet. She assured me at the time of the gifting that it was very hardy and would grow well in our area. I’m wondering if I’ll be able to do so in a couple of weeks.
