Flooded

Ok. We've had enough rain now. The ground is so saturated that all the rain is just running down and flooding lower ground.

A few days before the last thunderstorm, Guv'nor created neat little charts showing rainfall and temperatures over the past year. Since then, though, we had over 5" in one night!

The following morning we found several of our pastures flooded. The creek behind us sounded like a roaring waterfall. The gravel approach to a small bridge up the road washed away.

Don't get us wrong. We are very thankful for the rain. We usually need the rain. We would just prefer that it was spread out a little more with a few sunny days in between to dry out.
