The heavy rains are over for now. The Arkansas River is receding. I have had trouble keeping up with yard work. Yesterday, I weeded the peonies – 300 plants in all. An 83 year old friend helped. Betty has helped tend the plants since 1975. I was tired, but she was full of energy. No way I was going to quit before she did. I just wish she wasn’t out to outdo the Energizer Bunny.
