And the rain continues

Well this little guy is getting quite the workout lately. June's weather was awful and July is continuing on the same way. The 4th of July weekend was nice but the past two days consisted of rain, thunder, lightening and more rain.
Because of all this rain my corn, at least I think, has washed away. I can't tell if I am growing corn or crab grass. If it is crab grass it is growing in a very uniform row, just like where the corn should be.
I read in my bible (aka Trowel and Error) that you can hang red Christmas ornaments on your tomatoes when the first green ones appear. Allegedly the critters will peck at the ornaments and realize that they don't like them so when the tomatoes actually turn they will have been deterred from the whole plant. So here is my Christmas in July. Here's hoping it works.
