Update on my basil! I have been gone for a few days for vacation and I forgot to ask the lady who cared for my place to spray my basil plant with my lemon dish detergent and water but they still did ok. When I came home there were a few on it but not near as much as I have had before. I sprayed it right away and we haven't had any on it the last two days. Pretty good improvement if you look back at what it looked like not that long ago. Click here to see what it looked like then (before my lemon detergent and water mix was put on it.)

There is a little flooding going on around here. Your more then welcome to click here to read about it in my local newspaper. Hopefully, the weather will cool down some and stop raining for a few days. Boy, it's hot and humid right now.
