Time for a swim?

We've had a bit more runoff than the last two years. The first two pics are of our pasture and the next two are the ones in the valley nearby.

Wow, that`s alot of water. Watch out for Jaws. That`s probably the most that has been in this area for many years.
Three years ago it was said that it would take a long time for the sub soil moisture to return to normal.....Good thing they were wrong, I hate drought.

Hey Dueller I think I recognise that road. Is that valley the paved highway from Davidson to Watrous. I had to clean a farm on the grid road from that highway to Young about 5 years ago. Got 9 vehicles from that farm. Still have the 76 Marquis wgn and the 63 Meteor from there sold the rest. Sold a 63 Ford unibody. Should of hung onto it. Had good cab and front clip. Floor of box pretty rusted. sides were straight.
So if that is the highway, where are you located from there. i probally driven by your place several times.

The road by my place has stopped being flooded. Or should say the water level has quit rising. Now the road bed is getting soft. I complained to the R.M. about it, so maybe this summer they will build the road back up.

I cannot remember his name very well. It was a Ukrainian name I think. The family that hired me had different last name. I think it was Brendylski I cannot recall. He lived North of Bruce Ulmer's farm. Bruce is still there. I have not been that way since. Some day I like to go road traveling again through the country sides. Gas prices sort of control that these days.

I know a guy that knows a guy with one! If I knew how to, I'd attach some pics from the Deloraine GC last July long, there was about 30ft of water on the first green!
