Flooding

Of course, we are not in the least danger, as our property stands near the top of a considerable hill, but many rivers are overflowing their banks. With the winter melt not yet out of the system, spring rains fell. The next week will be mostly rainy, with up to 100mm in some 24-hour periods. The little Crick is certainly rushing.


Ollie does not approve of the wet. Sometimes he does like the water, and rushes up and down the stream like a lunatic, but not in the pouring rain--too much of a good thing!
