This is turning into the wettest dry season in TN we’ve experienced since moving here.  The other day it rained over an inch, and it continues intermittently.  Then it turns ghastly humid with mosquitos.  Fun.  But the trees are very happy.

I started to work on step 2 of the “prairie” project, systematically locating and marking all the trees I want to keep and clear around.  I didn’t get very far before the mosquito squads got up in my face, but I’ll keep at it when conducive.

I did manage to take these random flower shots in between showers.  The morning glories are really thriving in this climate.  Whereas I’m wilting and wringing myself out a lot.  But I don’t mind, It’s what gardening is all about.  The world is disintegrating, but my little botanical microcosm is slowly coming around and being put right.
