I got the same message about the fork from you and Kay within a day of each other. I am hoping that this does not foretell that I will soon be clutching "my fork". We have had 4 inches of rain in the last 24 hours and it is rumbling and getting dark as I write this and we are under forecast of more rain throughout the week.
There is some water standing in the front yard and along the side yard. I am hopeful that we will continue to get hour long breaks as we have so far, so that some of the run off can disperse down the creek. A 13-year old boy tragically drowned at Miller and Glenbrook about 8:30 last night. I heard all the sirens and heard the police helicopters hovering overhead, but did not know the reason until this morning. Duck Creek was rushing at 30mph plus according to the news reportand was almost to the top of the banks (Gulp!!!!) as seen on the news footage They recovered his body about 10. I am guessing that he and his friend walked down to see how high the creek was, and he slipped in. So sad!!!
Help! that Bradford pear tree in the back corner new bed is dying. It seemed to get sick from the time that I put the new plants in and the red cedar mulch. I know better than to cover tree roots with more than 2 inches of dirt, but the mulch over the roots is only about one inch thick, so I think that it is coincidence that it occured at about the same time. I guess I will leave the tree in for awhile to see if it is just dropping leaves and will recover (two maples, not covered in mulch did the same thing) Too much water do you think? I am not sure what to do for the trees, but sure do hate losing them. Do you have any suggestions?
