So far for the month of March we have received over 23 inches of rain...The dry creek bed is flowing the creek is flowing and flooding. The ground is saturated and everything is soaking wet! We need a little break about now to let the sun shine and let things grow. I know we have been in an extreme drought the past 2 years but getting all this rain at one time is not a good thing. It needs to pace itself out over time and not come all at once. I hope this isn't the end of the rain either but I sure wish we'd get some sun and a little break.
Michael had a friend over this past week (their spring break) and they went looking for fish in the dry creek bed that isn't dry anymore...
They found some bluegill in the grass.
I got out today (Sunday) and took some wildflower photos!
Buckeye in the wildflowers
What it looks outside our back door. I just can't bring myself to mow it down!
The bees are busy
Michael checking out the flooded Coleto Creek.
The dogs with my boy in the wildflowers. I didn't ask Michael to pose I just went out to get photos of the flowers and they all followed me. Then Michael asked where I wanted him and I was like this is so cool. Last year I had to beg him and I still don't think I got one...
Later this evening I went out to see what else I could find...
Dew Berry Bloom
The Dew berries are going to be thick...
Hundreds of thousands of mosquitoes have already hatched and they are waiting in the grass.
A doe watching me...
The grass is thigh high around here and so very thick. We are going to let it go to seed before we mow it down. Soon this will be fenced off and pasture for the heifers and horse!
Sure was nice to see the sun today!! Looks like it is going to be a really nice week!
