Eric and I shot over to Gethsemane Garden Center today. There was a big bald brown spot in our garden. We caught one of the nice people buzzing around with big floppy hats and elbow length gloves and told her, "Hey we have a spot in our yard that floods when it rains. It's pretty much a place for a mud wrestling tournament. And all the plants have drowned. And we're far too lazy to level the yard."

"Oh!" she exlaimed with a grin. "So you want to make a rain garden?"

"Why...yes! That's precicely what we want to do."

Who knew there were such things? But now we have one. At least in its phase one.
