From Ice to Slop

Would you have ever guessed that 1 week ago the hi temp for the day was -2 and today the temp was 62? I'm not sure, but I think I still live in the midwest. Oh yeah, that's right last year on Jan 7th our house was struck by lightening and we lost all of our electric items. So I guess this weather is correct. Tonight the temp is going to drop and it is going to ice up again. Hang on for the ride!

This is the water that it is in the side yard at our house. The back yard has a small slope so I can use the garden tools and a rake to open it up and let it go. I am sorry to the farmer that lives next to us, but there really isn't anything that can be done.

I thought you would like to see the river that we now live on. It is called the River Troyer. I think I can get a tube and take a ride down stream....... looks like fun!

I wanted to post a picture of LadyBug running thru the water. She was a mess, but was having a blast! She was helping me with keeping the area opened up! I had to bathe her when she came in the house!
