All the creeks And Iowa river over-flowing in Iowa County. I pray this rain goes to area who needs it-drought areas. Farmer haven't been able to get in fields. We got flooded last night. Got 3 inches of rain Friday. Total of 9 inches in one week. Was lucky flower beds are raised. Like to raise them more. And until I can get some good soil hauled+ my compost. Making raised veggy garden. Only doing couple up-side down matters.
