Still soggy after all this rain

We have a side yard that is all lava rock. It seems to be a "weed magnet" and I am constantly spraying the weeds and grasses that continuously sprout. Judy decided to get rid of the rock, and listed it on Craigslist. She said she got about a dozen calls, finally offered the stuff to one man, and he showed up yesterday with his son to rake the stuff up. It is a swamp out there, and about the only rock he managed to load was a little bit up on top of the mud. Maybe it will dry up someday and he can get the rest, but right now, it looks like the eruption just ended.

Oh, our little furry friend that came visiting last Saturday night is still a guest. I have a new "live catch"trap, baited with peanut butter, but he's still at large. More later, if and when we catch little "Mickey."
