Its still raining. The water is almost up to the bridge and in fact the stream is backed up and flooding the lower pasture as well as the driveway. We seem to have acquired a heron as a consequence. What a waste of drinking water although perhaps it will soak down into the aquifer. The alpacas are living in the their shed and look very bedraggled, so does Lawrence! Maybe they know something and we should all head for the caves.
