It started rainin yesterday evenin about 6pm...in ernest. We had some powerful thunderstorms move thru, about the time the CMA awards were on, so we only got about half that watched before the satellite went capoot. Never lost power for more than a few seconds..so that was good. But boy did it rain. Had another line come thru about 1 am. It rained all night tho. Here at the house we got 4 1/4 inches of rain. Out at the pasture we got 4 and 7/10 inches.

I've always wondered....if that'd been snow...how much would it have been? LOL

Here's a few flood pictures. Mostly just an inconvenience in the pastures. Some roads closed because of water runnin over them, but not too many.
When these pictures were taken the water had already receded about 2 foot. So sometime early this mornin is when it was at it's worst.

The first two pictures are of our cow pasture.




This one is of our railroad bridge where one of the creeks comes into the place....our floodgates are completely gone...we'll hafta get right on that when the water goes down so that cows aren't out on the road. :? Fun fun LOL



Lil Lilly havin to bale water out of the feed traugh.......why it holds water is beyond me..but the next chance I get I'm takin a drill out there and drillin holes in the bottom of it so water don't stand in it.
