MUSHROOMS IN THE GRASS !!

Charlie put this cute bridge in our back yard to connect our yard to the tennis court.
The broccoli really likes the rain!

Idaho Falls has received 3 times the amount of rain in the first 13 days of the month than it usually gets all of June! Yesterday the news said that Palisades reservoir was at 98% capacity. We have had to turn off the sprinklers at home and all the townhomes. Mushrooms were growing in the grass! Every where is a wonderful lush green. We even had to turn the water off the gardens. The plants were turning yellow from over watering. Can you believe this is Idaho in June? It is supposed to be sunny this week-end. YEAH!

Love the new townhome! How many garden boxes do you guys have? Those look like such a fun way to garden. The bridge to the tennis court is also a great touch. Too bad it will all be covered with snow probably when we come visit.

I love that bridge. It's a great finishing touch to that area. I hope your little garden survives this crazy weather. Too much water is an unusual problem in Idaho in June. No more worries about the drought I guess. I look forward to seeing your spiffied-up back yard this weekend!
