April Showers Bring Destruction?

Weeks of sunshine, warmer weather, and blossoming trees in the Pacific Northwest convinced me it was a good time to transplant the seedlings I nurtured for months indoors.
However, today’s April showers came in the form of icy death cubes: hailstones.
Growing up on a farm, spring hail could ruin our crop, so my heart sank when the first hailstones hit the ground at my feet.
“Seriously? You’ve got to be kidding me.” I said to the cold air out loud.
The seedlings have had a harsh move to the great outdoors.
Welcome to the cold, cruel world, little ones.
