Big Storm Last Night

Last night, we had one heck of a thunderstorm.

It began in the evening and went on through to around my bedtime. It came down heavy and I was concerned that it would wash parts of Barking Spider Road into the field, like it did two years ago.

After the sun came up this morning, I went outside to inspect Barking Spider Acre and it appeared okay. The field was much greener from all of the rains we've been having.

It appears that having crushed asphalt layered over Barking Spider Road was the right decision. It stayed in place.

The deck and the grounds were still wet from the rains this morning. The trees got a good soaking overnight.

My weather apps said before the storm that we'd get a 15% chance of precipitation. That was one heck of a 15%.
