Even the frogs are complaining in my backyard...

Have to tell you that those aren't complaints, but froggy love songs!  "It's wet!  Let's make tadpoles!"   

[Know Growth]

Probably close to 12 inches or easily more in the backyard rain gauge over the past two weeks......typically two or more inches per rainfall episode-I flip the water out of the gauge,the total inches pile up,lost in haze of cigar smoke,coffee and wine..

it's a big back yard- a 450 Foot Per Second bb gun shot horizontally off of the back porch will barely send the projectile outside of Riverside Avondale.

A certified Wildlife Federation Backyard Wildlife Habitat,the frogs scream,seepage springs gush naturally,the water held on the property thanks to planned slowed hydroperiod;the property boundary ditch filled,the waters trickling in to Big Fishweir creek rather than most un-natural gush.

Fishweir Creek,the southwestern boundary of RAP, has been subjected to  cleansing.Pulses of Roosevelt Blvd. storm system litter flows past,each wave less and less,the Orgasim subsides.Perhaps pent up demand will usher in another.....
This after decades of River Advocacy- must be how it should be,yes?.......the trash marches to the big river.
From time to time litter lodges at my property,I flaunt the city rule that forbids the throwing of 'anything' in to area waterways,with solemn yet giddy intent,(after all, I reside in a "Best Place",not even a joint city/fed Creek Restoration proposal can directly address the trash ), I launch the trash back to Public Waters with great fanfare ....the litter flung skyward.....yee Haa... high arc,satisfying splash,splat.

^Well said. It's a garbage flotilla out there. Two of everything.
