As if flooding once this year wasn't bad enough, we are flooding again. We have experienced one of the wettest summers that I can ever remember. We are usually begging for rain in July and August and this year school was canceled in August due to flooding. We are one of the few around that has silage chopped and the field we chopped was under water today. Our cows are luckily on higher ground and are avoiding the flooding but not everyone is that lucky. Houses that were starting to clean up the mess of a few weeks ago and now filling up again. Farmers are starting to wonder if we will be able to get the corn and beans out of the field and doing another cutting of hay seems impossible now. The next few weeks and months will prove to be interesting.
On a happy note...Tomorrow, will and I have the honor of standing next to our good friends as they become husband and wife. After finding a new hait stylist to do my hair for the wedding tomorrow as mine is currently flooded i am ready for it.
The weather is suppose to be perfect at 68 degrees and no chance for rain. We are not going to let this flooding slow us down even if we have to detour a few washed out roads to keep the party going.
