Enough already!

That sounds close to blasphemy coming from a gardener. You know that we appreciate every drop we receive but this is bordering on ‘honey, is the ark ready?’ The birdbaths have been overflowing for days now. The puddles are forming into bigger expanses that might, just might, become a lake before this rain is finished. The basement is damp—even the cats are damp. And the usually tall and proud Feather Reed grasses have bent their plumes over in the saddest of ways. I think that just about sums up this weekend of water at my place. Hope is Obama and hope is that tomorrow is a sunny day.
