Flood at the Farm

The Farm...aka.. the Gertge Property...
is up in Morgan. It's also the only place we go camping.
Many of our friends have been there.
It's fun, there's a river, a fire pit, and most importantly, flushing
toilets & running water.
We've seen the news & heard of the flooding going on up there, so
last night we decided to drive up & check it out. We didn't expect
it to be this flooded.

Usually, the swing set is Not on an island. In fact, you can normally walk way, way past it
out to the edge where the river is normally just a foot or so at the deepest.

This is just out past the swing set.

This is about how wide the river usually is.

This is the fire pit & how it usually looks.

This is how it was last night
Again....how it usually is

& what it looked like last nightIt was crazy!

Here's Kenadee
(I don't know why this picture looks like it's from the '70s.
I took it last night)
With the weather getting warmer...it's only suppose to get worse!
We want to go back up soon & see how it changes.
Our Ward Camp out is here every year... It's suppose to be in less than a month.
We'll see about that. I can't image it will happen.
(& I'm okay with that ) .
The kids ran around & got very muddy.
We hung out for a while. It was chilly, but nice.
And here's Fiero running through the field.
He Loved it!

That is crazy! Thank goodness it's just the property and not your house!
