With the exception of a couple people, I was not amused.

That is all!

And I do mean rain! I emptied our rain gauge here in front of our house cause IT WAS RUNNING OVER! That gauge holds five inches and let me tell you, I emptied it hours ago and there is no telling how much more has fallen. But, get this… I AM NOT COMPLAINING! I promised to never complain about rain again. Remember all that whining I did a couple of years ago? Oh, I know you do!!!

When we went out this afternoon to check our cattle, we were shocked to see the ones at our north pasture crossing the creek which was flowing very swiftly and deep enough to reach the top of the bull’s back. Not so much a problem for him or the cows, but those tiny calves were following right along and DISAPPEARING out of sight briefly and making my heart stop! Thankfully, all made it through to the other side in that bunch. Who knows what happened to some out south of town. Part of them were on one side of the creek at the hay rings with the others across the creek waiting out the storm. I’m hoping they stayed put and didn’t force their babies to cross the rising water for that creek is twice as deep and ferocious.

I have a video, but it is too large to share online, just trust me when I say it was a scary situation and keep your fingers crossed we find them all alive and on high ground tomorrow.
