After After the Flood

We 're making progress on flood clean up. Shown here is the same spot you saw on the May 16 posting below. The water level is back to normal. You'll note the tree trunks and other debris are gone, pulled out with chains and a tractor, some cut up with a chain saw. What appears to be a picket fence suspended in mid-air or a large musical instrument in the foreground is actually a watergate (the real kind, not the political variety). It is comprised of pieces of PVC pipe strung on a wire so that water and hopefully tree branches will pass beneath but horses will not. Bonnie thinks it might also play "Happy Birthday" if the breeze catches it. Bonnie claims the design is hers.
