Cooperative weather

The weather today has been cooperative with the soaking of the soil. Been cloudy all day and rained for a short while this afternoon. 

So, I've been rotating areas and letting the well pump run most of the day, until nearly the entire back yard is most likely the dampest it has been in millenia. Though still hoping it rains more tonight. There is the possibility.

I did switch over to the sprinkler later in the day, to cover a wider area near the far west side of the yard. 

Letting that run a little longer. Then going to change over to the front yard sprinkler and let that run for a couple of hours. Not quite as long because not as much there with deep roots and it's much smaller. 

Planted the new trees and the strawberry roots today. Transplanted a few tomato plants to larger containers. By the time it's warm enough to transplant them outside, I expect some may be over 2 ft tall.
