“if seven maids with seven mops swept it for half a year, do you suppose”, the Walrus said ” that they could get it clear?” “I doubt it”, said the carpenter and shed a bitter tear.
I will keep on sweeping.

A drought in Alabama (and most of the Southeast) means we do not have a pretty fall—everything is brown. The leaves are deep and crunchy and it is impossible to keep driveway or deck clean. I almost cry when I wander in the yard and see cherished plants dying. Water restrictions are in place as our lakes where we obtain our water are drying up. Enjoy your leaf raking and rainy days!
We have no rain either Marlene, it’s been an exceptionally dry summer. The local stream has disappeared and the ponds are almost dry. At this time of year the ditches that feed the stream should be full to overflowing. A sad state of affairs.
On a lighter note… your ‘Walrus & Carpenter’ quote raised a smile Gill. Thank you.
