Wish I were there....

...to at least haul a few of those wheelbarrow loads for you.

And here in Mississippi we've had no rain in over a month and there have been "fire alerts" and such. We need some rain.

Oh and make sure you have supplies for power outages. I hope you have a spare generator. After we lost power for almost a week after Katrina, our neighbor's generator drew us all from miles around (the only sound), as if he were the pied-piper. While we were there people traipsed in and out with coffeemakers and watched TV news, while we drank hot tea and enjoyed the fan (it was so hot!). Best of all, his refrigerator kept running. Another useful item is those little power-packs that can provide light, recharge your car battery, run a small appliance and a couple more things.

But here's hoping you need none of that.
