I’m in Johnson City. Watching my garden revel drunkenly in the rain!
I'm just down the road from you in Knoxville (well, not "just" down the road, but down the road, anyway).
I have frequently wished that I had a garden, and have read a number of books on gardening, before I finally figured out that what I really like is reading books on gardening more than the actual work.
Wouldn't mind getting some of that rain you're getting as long as it could come without the golf-ball-sized hail we got a couple or so weeks back, which knocked out phone and power and punched a hole in my porch roof, and set off car alarms all over the neighborhood. Enjoyably dramatic while it was going on, though.
