If it doesn't stop raining soon, I'm going to have a bumper crop of zucchini in my front window. I tranplanted the squash and tomatoes into #10 cans...they have outgrown the peat pots this week.
My friend Michelle dropped off white geraniums this afternoon. I pulled the terra cotta pots out to plant them in, but it's raining too hard to do that. Another day...
Here's a random photo...a dried arrangement I purchased a month or so ago. Blues and lavenders...cool and pretty.
...and this is what took forever to list on eBay today. It's been a while since I've listed anything, and just like Blogger, they've made lots of changes I'm not used to. I have lots more to list...all Gail Wilson Designs kits, but right now it's too much to wrap my head around. I have probably two dozen of the Early Amerian Doll furniture and clothing kits, and from what I understand, they are no longer available. Gotta get them listed...need any kits? Check out the listing(s) under the seller: oldbluequilt.

Life along the river...
While I worry about getting my meager "crops" out, there are definitely more serious issues at play in our area...the flood walls went up yesterday along the Ohio River in downtown Evansville. After the standards are all in place, sheets of aluminum are inserted, providing protection from the rising waters.This photo is from the Evansville Courier Press.
This picture (taken by Johnny Kincaid and posted on the Superhits 105.3 website) is of the Casino Aztar plaza. Water is level with the plaza...and that was before the overnight storms that passed through the area.
Another photo by Johnny Kincaid...of the Dress Plaza area along the riverfront. What you're not seeing is the seating available under the water. Pretty scary!
On another note, when the river hits cresting stage in Newburgh, Water Street will be under water. Maybe it's a good thing that I don't still live in that little cottage!
