Broom Hilda by Russell Myers for February 20, 2024

We’ve had 16 inches of rain in the last few weeks, including 4 inches since Saturday. No need to dig for mud, we’ve plenty everywhere.

You’re about to be pushed out, Broomie!!

BTW, don’t witches perform magic? Broomie could have just conjured up a swimming pool—and then ZAPPED the nosy, intrusive neighbors popping up from nowhere!! LOL

Bet she would call a pothole a spray park!

In high school, I managed a small local pool. It was such a pain in the neck to keep the water ph balanced and the chlorine adjusted.

Are you hoping the mud will do wonders for your skin, Broomie?

How a small hole can cause such delight….LOL!

Nerwin wants in!

Low standards are sure to be met.

During a drought, many, many years ago, I decided to dig out a small basement under my house. It started out like chipping away at solid brick, 3’ thick. But, as luck would have it, it started to rain, and rain, and rain. My excavation filled up with water and the walls were now mud, not brick. Had I known that the rains were coming, I could’ve saved myself so much work by waiting on the dig.

You can start a mud bath spa.

I believe that Calvin calls it a “kid magnet”. ;-p

“Mud! Mud! Glorious mud!

Nothing quite like it for cooling the blood!

So follow me, follow,

Down to the hollow,

And there let us wallow in glorious mud!"

In my childhood we didn’t use shovels. Just a hose and our feet.

little things mean a lot

Hooray!

I remember my brother was putting in his above ground pool and figured he would just level the ground himself. He soon realized it was more digging that he had thought and hired someone to do it.
