More rain. Rain, rain, rain. I don't think it is ever going to stop. I am surprised at how well the property is holding up with all of the wetness. Being from the Fraser Valley, I am used to the mud but there is not much here (which I can thank David and Sarah for...their planning and use of crusher dust seems to have saved everything). I can no longer count on my fingers the number of times I have nearly ended up on my rear end in the goat paddock though. It is awfully slippery where the goats have made a path and when darkness falls at 3:00 (as it did yesterday with the storm), avoiding those spots are pretty hard.
This morning when I went to feed the horses, all the hay had been eaten, which is surprising as they had a bale and a half at least between the two feeders and the hay nets in the shelter. I soon found though, that they had ripped the zap straps on the top of the new feeder and had a 'hay day' with it. I'm so glad that was easily fixable.
On the plus side, I haven't had to fill water buckets or have a shower lately- the rain seems to be taking care of that just fine.
