Wow, those lilies look sure look familiar. Things grew so well there for me, I was young and became so spoiled. I was sure I could replicate those planting wherever we moved. LOL

You were certainly a lot lower than we were. We were on a river, the Wicomico, we we rarely had such extreme conditions. We did live on a sharp bend and barges regularly took out sections of our dock. One time a barge came right up about 100' into the back yard. My boys had been playing ball out there and ran in to tell me a barge had come calling. Those things are huge. The shipping companies would pay us and we would repair the dock/yard ourselves and buy another boat with the $. At one point we had 6 boats.
Minds are like parachutes; they work better when they are open.
