After not being able to get home for two weeks due toall the high water, and flooding in Oklahoma, I was able to be home this weekend.  I had visions of a flooded out garden, and while the corn seems a bit overrwatered, reallyall this rainfall seems to have helped. I have berries galore ripening, tomatoes growing g. Strikes me as fitting how much better the garden does when you put it in at the correct time, and not a month late!  Next week, is rhe one year anniversary of my arrival to livw full time on aSilver Moon Homested!




The pond really is overflowing now, and either I have oil below the surfce that is being pushed up with the water, or someone above me has dumped oil or chemicals and it has come down on my place, as runoff- neither is a good prospect?







The ravine that two weeks ago was a  raging stream bed has slowed to a trickle. That and evidence that flood waters are receding makes me think we have weathered (pun intended) this rain crisis.
