I am very happy that I found her. I know most doctors are just legal drug dealers. It's BS. If the doctor doesn't get paid to write a prescription they don't want to give it to you.

I'm so happy right now because a lady from Australia offered to send me some seeds. She sent 3 packs of different colors. Now I have to find out how to get them planted.

This is the creek closest to my house. I know that this isn't about gardening but I figured it should be posted because if I decide to take on Fall gardening this is going to be my biggest challenge

It's probably not even an eighth of a mile

The neighbor has been working on fixing the flood problems but unfortunately we had rain from Thursday night all the way into Saturday afternoon. That's too much for that short of time.

Scary! We lived through a heavy downpour once that flooded the street by our house and filled people's basements! There were containment areas around our neighborhood at the time and they turned into large ponds! We got our dinghy out of the garage and went sailing in the park in one of the ponds! We were giving sailing rides to the neighbor kids

We have a canoe. ALmost used it about a decade ago when everything was flooded. I watched a wooden fencepost on the cattle fencing by the street that had broken off with age, and it was bobbing in the water.
Don't know about you dinghy but you can float a 16 ft canoe in 8 inches of water.

When we can’t get out on the roads due to flooding …that’s when the horses come in handy. We cut thru as the crows fly to get to town much shorter. Ya never freeze on a horse it’s like sitting on a heater..
