Enjoy the figs, Tina.  When I was a young teenager, we had a fig tree right outside the back door.  There's nothing better than salt-rising toast with home-made fig preserves for breakfast.

We had 2 1/2 inches of rain yesterday that was not predicted at all!  I
don't think it had anything to do with the tropical storm but it was
much-needed rain in this drought-stricken part of SC.  Maybe now my figs
will get ripe!!

Thanks, Chris.  This Tropical Storm is dropping torrential rain further
south, but we are just seeing occasional showers.  The Civil Air Patrol
is doing glider work with cadets out at the airport.

When we built this house fifty years ago, my late wife gathered Rose of
Sharon plants from her old home in Mississippi and transplanted them to our
new yard.  Over the years, they have mutated to a variety of shades and
colors, from pure white to this deep rose, shone here after attack by
Japanese Beetles, and with the outer rain bands of Tropical Storm Barry
passing overhead.
