    Mr. Johnson is returning to simpler themes although I’m not really sure I’d be soaking my feet in the low spot of my yard but then again we do live in different worlds.

    If you’re in Louisiana you could get 20 inches. Then it’s ALL low spots.

    Looks like a mosquito resort in the making.

    My low spot only fills with water in the winter. My kids used to skate on it when they were little.

    I didn’t get it at first, because the “water” in the last panel is brown and not blue

    I think they should be drinking Piña coladas.

    It all started with a wistful comment by Janis and Arlo’s imagination to fulfill it. Working together, LOVE can do that!

    We used to live in a low spot, but the current house is on a high spot.

    If Janis had something specific in mind, she should have done it. I think Arlo did a great job. I’m sure that Ludwig is ecstatic with a rotisserie.

    Arlo wanted to do a little this “sand” that.

    Based on her dialogue in the last panel, Janis intended the low spot be filled. Arlo, always the romantic, heard “something” and came to a different conclusion. Unless their soil has a very high clay content or there is a very high water table, the “water feature” will be short lived, but return every time rainfall is adequate. I used to live on 11 very porous acres in the country with a draw that became a creek in times of high rainfall (every few years here in South Texas). I always intended to “do something” along the lines of improving a trail down to the low spot and stacking some rocks to sit on, but alas my back gave out and we moved to town.
