Default [IBC] blah!

Since February 22, I have recorded 17.45 inches of rain in the
gage in front of my house, 4 of them in the last 24 hours. The
"official" weather measurement for Tallahassee (about 25 miles to
the south of me) is 9.8 inches. We have had TWO days without
rain in that period -- TWO! We've probably seen the sun for a
total of 20 minutes. Two of the three roads to my place are
under water. My driveway is impassable up the hill to the house.
The barn is flooded.

Add to that a gravely ill 91-year-old mother and this spring has
been a real bummer.

AAARRRRGGGGHHHH!

But I've managed to get all my spring repotting done, though some
of the newly trimmed roots have remained a bit soggy since
:-( and there's lots of pots sitting at a severe tilt.

As I write this, there's MORE thunder rumbling to our west where
all this precip is coming from.

Maybe -- maybe -- I'll make it to our club meetings this
afternoon, or maybe I'll stay home and eat worms!
