I t has looked like "rain" for the past 6 hours.......no rain. We went for a little trip up to St. Louis. The rivers up there are swollen. They do not need rain. We, however, could use a little. Everything in the garden survived, with the help of a friend and neighbor. She came over and checked "All my children" periodically. I can't get over the banana trees, they're looking great. Someone told me if they produce bananas, they will die. I hope our growing season doesn't allow that.
The pond is looking good. I think it needs about four more feet, to be up to the dam. The frogs sure love it. I need to seed the back part of the dam,though. The "pond digger" said that would keep the dam from washing away. Sure hope that doesn't happen.

It's so odd that no farther apart than we live, and we have had more rain so far this year than we usually get all year. I want some sun!
