Prayers! Is your area prone to floods?

Prayers! Is your area prone to floods?

Not particularly. We're normally high and dry. There are creeks, streams, as well as a river that goes through town, but work on that over the years has limited possible flooding that used to take place. That being said, we're in a flood watch through Sunday afternoon. That mostly takes into account the river rising and local streams and creeks going over their banks throughout what is largely open countryside.
We've had a lot more rain than usual so far this year, especially in April, and they're saying we'll get quite a bit over the weekend. But being in the north part of Texas we're much better off than those along the coast.

That's good. How is your okra doing?

My mother wasn't much of a gardener, but she planted spinach once. I was only eight. We had a storm and the hail beat the little seedlings. She only planted radishes after that. But we usually lived in apartments, so no gardening.

The temperatures have been so up and down that the plants just sat there until this week. They like steady warm/hot weather. This week they doubled in size. They should grow rapidly now.

That's a shame. I love getting outside and playing with the plants.

Yikes! We suddenly find ourselves getting a heavy rainstorm!
(So startled my cat, she nearly leaped off the bed! )

Spring is here. No more frosts.

Mama mallard is still on her nest near my front porch. She isn't startled by me any more. But it seems like it's time for those eggs to hatch. It takes about 30 days. But I didn't write down the date when I first saw her.

My riding mower died. My daughter and I are going half and half on the new one.
