And what an awesomely nice rainfall it was (except when you work outside. Then, frankly, it can be a bit annoying at times). It brought up lots of weeds, but made the lettuce grow really nicely for salad on Sunday!

As of today, we’re about 11 feet lower than where we were last year, and about 14 feet below full pool.

My rain barrel has more water than Lanier.  Wanna know why?  The Corps doesn't manage the valve.   :p<

You know you're a gardner when your neighbor's huge tree falls and all you can think about is "How will that change the light on my backyard?"

everytime my neighbor tells me planted a new tree i cringe.  of course, it isn't my right to say anything so i just smile and say "that's nice"

you know your a gardener when you try to orient yourself to a part of town while conversing by saying things like "oh that's near habershams"  or "oh you pass that on the way to grower's outlet" or "you mean down the street from the purple house with all the flowers"
