A River Runs Through It

and around it.

Perhaps this post should more aptly be titled Island in the Stream.

We have had so much rain in recent days that the earth cannot possible absorb one more drop of water. It rushes down the hill behind Little Red in a torrent carving new pathways as it finds its way to lower ground. Little Red and her inhabitants anxiously hold their ground in the midst of the raging river.

Today the sun is shining.  It appears we have a reprieve from the storms.  Hopefully we can dry out, at least a little, before the deluge begins again.

In the mean time, I hear sawing from the confines of the barn.

I think the The Kid is building an ark.

I guess you have had a little rain!! The golf course around here looked like that for a while this spring - but fortunately for the golfers, it has subsided for now. Stay dry....
