Gaining

Well, yesterday got exciting. The above pic of Buckeye doesn’t reflect the crazy rain event over an apparently localized area of Disappointment Valley and Spring Creek Basin, but he and his band were grazing what I swear was growing-right-before-our-eyes grasses after the amazingly crazy rain event!

It was a little nerve-wracking while water was gushing down arroyos and along and over parts of Disappointment Road and into Spring Creek (which, with its tributary arroyos, drains Spring Creek Basin) and Disappointment Creek … but I’m pretty sure that our world already looks a little greener. 🙂

Crazy rain arrived here too! Have received rain, in various amounts, for 3 days in a row! Woot-Woot!

We haven’t gotten this much rain – cumulatively – for months, I think. Very happy about your rain … and ours, too!

I can’t say – I don’t have a digital weather station or manual rain gauge installed on my place to prove to those around me via carefully collected and currated ‘stats’ – it’s okay – I’m not the ‘go to’ for those who question my experience, for their ‘irrigation with ground water calculations’ thus, I do not care what they think of my ‘old timey way of ‘ reporting in – LOL

That is such a beautiful horse. Wow. Here too. We’ve had an inch over the past week. My experimental wildflower garden in a bare spot in the front yard has taken off, finally.

Nice about your rain – and your wildflowers! 🙂 Hopefully it will bring up our grass – I think it’s already greener!

“Gushing?!” “Gushing” you say! Now that’s some serious rain, TJ. And I’m so glad! Can’t remember when I saw water actually gushing out there. And wow – handsome, gorgeous Buckeye! No wonder the new ladies were smitten. 😃

The rain was crazy … and so was the flooding/erosion! The excellent part is the full ponds! 😉
