Thanks. It does look green here right now. Since my 'lawn' is pasture grass and I didn't get to it quickly enough, it looks like it's ready for some hay to be baled. It's weird though. We are a yellow spot showing on the national drought map. We are still under moderate drought conditions, but every county that touches the county line is out of it. There was a lot of rainfall that circled around us. We could use some, but it bypassed us again today.

Sorry about the fried plants. 'Bout the only plants that deserve to be fried are potatoes and okra. Some plants just require a lot of water anytime. At least a lot of the container plants I'm currently fooling with do. Had to keep an eye on the little fig tree, too. I hope, if it lives through the winter, that it will adjust some. I think it's probably always going to need some assistance.
