Late Spring Rains Make Happy Gardens

We have received rain the last four days and the garden is so happy!  

I can't believe how quickly things seem to be growing, the beets are getting so big, well I assume they are from the way their greens are growing,  the beans are growing tall and strong  and the zucchini and crook neck squash look ready to start their sprawl. 
The tomato plants are quickly becoming bushes and we will stake the tomatoes this week to avoid any breaking branches and encourage that growth.  

I even spied our first tomato one of the Super San Marzano's, can you see it in the photo?
