I have a good idea or disaster in the making.  Wink Maybe pictures of what to much rain looks like.  Not that much by many standards, but more than we expect in our little creeks and canyons.

Sorry if that color bothers some, but I like most any tractor THAT STARTS for me. Or the web site takes pictures easier than here.


That is all the January rain.   But some from this week and the road I live on washing out past me by 6 miles.

As I asked in the Shameless thread remember the people that cannot drive to town. They must have a boat to put into Nacimiento Lake and then 10 to 15 mile to the main public marina. Then have friend or get a UBER to any place they need to drive.

Well Sorry about that. The second one is local paper so google should take you to the road wash out. As this is the second time in 2 months it washed away. But hay it lasted way over 60 the first time even with bigger rains back over my lifetime. So my guess culver pipes rust out, and a dirt fill is not happy with that.

I was in San Francisco earlier in the week at the National Farmers Union Convention, saw on the TV weather that it looked like you guys were gonna get another big dump.  Hope it stops soon, getting to be time to be out in the field.  There should be plenty of grass at least.

to much rain does make things miserable. I remember years ago, when it was predicted that we would get lots of rain, many people that lived near creeks would hurry up and cut off some nuisence trees deopping them in the creeks/rivers and when the water came....them trees went!  I lost a pickup that I wasn't sposed to buy to some high water, was parked hidden on a lower creek bank...I walked that creek for 4 miles and never found it! PffffffT!

As sit here reading one of the bigger dirt moving operators low boy just went by headed for the wash out with a larger excavator. So the repair begins.


As for jobs in the mud I hope cow feeding is about over. This storm is predicted to be in the 50's.  The grass likes that much more than lower 40's.A few sprinkle's this morning the bigger rain coming tonight.
