For those of you in Florida - see if you can find a concentrated cleaner called "WEB" - (made in Lake Worth, FL by Southland Products Co 561-582-4814 according to the bottle) - sold in Winn-Dixie and at ACE Hardware - combines strong detergent with acid so it removes the soap scum AND hard water stains - just did my shower doors - came out looking new !! - be sure to follow directions for diluting - and rinse well with water -- would suggest a stiff brush or plastic dish scrubber rather than Brillo pad - (aluminum doesn't like steel wool)- works super on tile too - -happy cleaning - Dave

We live in Central Indiana and have a home in Southern Indiana. We have had so much rain. Over the Easter weekend we had so much flooding in the south. Our home is located outside of French Lick, Indiana. The business part of town was so badly flooded. Our home out of town sits up on a hill. The neighbor man said we had 2 cars parked up in our drive and the water was up to the windows. The water was up to within 6 inches of the bottom of the stop sign at the corner. We have never seen water this high before. My hubby went down later on in the week and it still looked like a lake across the road. We have had more then enough rain...

Oh geeze. Thanks for the kind words. Very much appreciated but not necessary. :) Garden Web is my occasional mental vacation/distraction from a hectic real life. As much as I love color, it's nice to come here and read about other stuff.

Eva, I'm sorry about the malignancies. We will continue praying for Barbara and keeping her in our thoughts. Thank goodness she will have someone there to help her through the summer. Please continue to keep us updated on her from time to time if you don't mind. Her positive outlook will get her far in her fight. We will be there for her. Linda
