Tomorrow is another day and quickly approaching. Hopefully the skies will cooperate and I'll get a good start on another round of photos! We were dealt a doozy of a storm this afternoon! My mud puddle turned pond is turning into a lake! Still not complaining though... much. Everything is green!

Out where I live most of our lakes are gone or very low...the spring fed lakes are the low ones. I'll take all the rain I can get. Part of the problem is zepherhills water bottling plant. They pump a lot of water out of our aquafer and last I heard they were petitioning for being allowed to pump even more. Soap box here...it really sickens me to see our state being so depleted. I guess because of my age I have seen what was and what has come and it truly makes me sad how most don't realize our resources aren't endless. Ok enough of that. Yeahhhh for more puppy pics!

Yep Ellie... that's why I'm reluctant to complain about rain. Would rather have rain than drought. Too many years in a row here with too little rain. Th place that I call my lake now, was apparently dug for drainage. The people that owned the place before me said there had been years that it was full. Over the years I found it surprising because I've seriously never had more than a two ft mud puddle a few inches deep. Those have appeared a couple times but were short lived. I've always used the "pit" as my burn pit. I've burned several full sized oaks in it. Until Irma. The pit measured approximate is 75 ft x 45 ft and probably about 6 ft deep in the center -sloping up gradually to each end. It filled up the night of Irma. It's receded a little here and there but after the rains of the past two days it's as full as it ever was if not more so. I'm very surprised the pines around the parameter haven't come down. Apparently they have very deep roots. One's leaning pretty significantly though so I suppose I should have it taken down before it comes down and takes the fence with it. Could then have log rolling contests out there. :-)

Yes I had a lot of damage from Irma....lost one of my much loved hickory trees and at least 2 other trees...the dead fall is still coming down as well. I never know whats going to be out there everytime I walk outside anymore. Nothing has landed on the house thankfully but I have lost sections of my fence. My yard looks like a jungle with all the greenery now though...way to much for my lawn mower and all in a matter of days. Just proves how much the earth needed it. I keep planning on going around and checking the lakes in hopes of seeing vast improvement but I think I am putting it off because I am afraid I wont see as much improvement as I hope. If you get some log rollers out there I really must insist on some pics lol. now about those puppy pics! Us GYBD junkies are impatiently waiting. Would you please ask the puppies to hold still :)...I know I know I ask the impossible lol
