Thawing Out

We're thawing out rapidly around here.

This is a photo I took last week of our "river" out front.

Remember the photo of the solar panels from last week?



Here they are today.



The ground I walked on to get to this vantage point was brown but not dry. It was completely squishy, saturated with snow melt.

And with a couple days with these temperatures, it's no wonder.

We got some shallow trenches dug that branch off and go around the house.

There's still a lot of water coming in the basement but we can manage by vacuuming it up about every 36 hours.

It's a pain but still, it's better than fire season.
