Farming is the biggest gamble that I know about.
Hope you have some good luck to go along with the other kind. Gardening is
farming on a smaller scale.
Having been born in Beaumont, Texas and being
raised on my father's description of bringing us home from the hospital in
a flood, I have a minor feeling for what that much water can do in 2 hours.

Oh my goodness, Dana! I am so sorry to hear (and
see) about your flooding. I heard on the Weather Channel this afternoon
that there was a tornado warning (or watch) in your area. Do hope not
too much damage was done.

Well, we are no longer an
inch behind in our rainfall. We are now 2.75 inches ahead. We
got 3.75" of rain in less than two hours. This just about doubled
our rainfall for the year!! We got home to find
everything underwater. Landscape timbers that had been laid under
the carport were floating in the driveway! I have attached a couple
of pictures to show you what it was like. We haven't been able to
go out yet and find out if the marble to golfball size hail that
accompanied the storm knocked off our seed pods. Cross your fingers
for us!!
