A short appendix to the Freddy the Buddhist Frog story.

Freddy informed me that I had left out a key picture in my article. Namely, what his garden home looked like before the drought. So here it is:

As you can see, early in the summer Freddy’s herb garden home among the rocks had lots of greenery and was a great place for a frog. He was happy there.

However, it has been a long dry summer and, so far, a dry fall. Now his herb garden home looks like this:

No wonder Freddy decided to move into the greenhouse, dreaming of greener days!
