water over the road at my house. First time in years I've seen water in the overflow for two stock tanks here.

Wow. A turd floater snuffy. Hope it doesn't drown anything. Sun came out,tomatoes and cucumbers wilting. Even though they are on raised beds,just too much water,around 12-14 inches all told. snuffy

We had a corker last night. Between 3 and almost six inches at different spots here on the ranch. Ground was already super saturated so it all ran off in flash floods. Took out every water break on the place. Spent the afternoon with a crew repairing just two of them where we were threatened with having our cattle escape through the washed out fences. I'm whupped, really too old for this sh*t....Mel

Speaking of the water gaps,we had 5 between us and our neighbors.Everytime we had a big rain,we had to go check them and put them back up.Dang if they seemed to be all our gaps,neighbors didn't seem to have any! snuffy

Yeah, we've got at least a dozen and on top of that two grass carp water gap fences. Haven't even checked those yet. Can't beleive the size of trees a five foot wall of water will carry downstream.....Mel
