Season journal: wet, wet, wet

For the past 3 days we have emptied the rain gauge and it keeps filling up! 

Ah, springtime in Wisconsin, where we are still heating the house with our wood burning stove. If the weather keeps this up, the seeds Michael planted a week ago will moulder in the ground. It would not be the first time. Last year we had a killing frost on May 27 th.  

To bring some cheer to this wet day, a few more wildflower photos:

and some lovely 4 petal flower I haven't been able to identify.
