Rice Paddy


Scot has asked that we revisit his past request of growing rice. If we continue to receive rain like we are today, I may seriously consider it. It's hard to believe that just hours earlier we were swimming in the hot sun. Now all the flower beds are overflowing with water; thunder is crashing on top of thunder, rain is still pouring.

Can you see where we should be planting rice? Unfortunately that's where my zinnia seeds and asparagus are supposed to be growing. (Although I can't blame the neighbor kids walking through it on the rain!) Today (and every day it rains) I'm grateful that we have a good sump pump and a dry basement.

Oh I know the feeling! Perhaps rice it is.
