Weather...

Yesterday afternoon, we had a HUGE storm--thunder, lightning, wind and buckets of rain.
Our back room flooded.

 The front yard looked like a rice paddy.
 This morning, there were a few puddles, but most of the water was gone.
 And it was sunny again.
We were enjoying the river
 when kayaks, canoes.
Dui telling these people off....loudly.
 And swimmers arrived. 
 We told them just whose beach it is,

 but they didn't listen!

They had a short break and then continued  their 74-km swim 
to the next town.
And we had the beach all to ourselves again! 

Oh, all you snow-covered Blogvillians, keep warm!

  1. That must have been a lot of rain to flood things so much. We hope all those intruders at least said excuse us and tossed you a few treats:)

  28. You have never showed swimmers in the river before. A dunk looks like fun. Dui watch out the guy in the canoe has a paddle and he could whack you silly.
    Thanks for being a friend
