It just started raining here. I had been outside weeding, but came in when the rain got too heavy for me to continue.
The lake in front of our house is out of it’s banks. This is the first time I’ve ever seen it so high. A “small” creek, at the north end of the lake, now looks like a bubbling river. The lake is in the middle of small hills and the hills look like sheets of water rushing into the lake. It is an amazing sight. To the west of us the sky is beginning to have a little blue, so maybe we’ll be rain free for a little while. Later today we’ll be catching more rain. One area to the west of us has received 22 inches of rain in the last 48 hours. The drain pipe to our stock tank is doing a pretty good job of keeping the tank from overflowing into the pasture and the road into our house. This is amazing.
