Foolish Knights challenge

I really liked Foolish Knight's 140 character story. His concept put me in mind of the flooded fields I drove through this summer (if any of you recall, Iowa was very severly flooded this last summer.) My family in Illinoise and Iowa, some of whom are farmers and all of whom come from farm families, were hit fairly hard by the flooding which destoryed numerous crops.
Anyway, I couldn't help but add onto the farmer and rain theme.

The continual downpour had turned once dry fields into swamps, yellow produce peaking out of ponds. “So much for this year’s crops...Darn.”
