We're still in the pattern of hot and humid sun alternating with heavy rain and thunderstorms, often all in the same day. Sometimes the thunderstorms are heavy and come with warnings. Like last night, so much lightning and thunder, it went on fairly late but I still fell asleep with it, I like thunderstorms. Unfortunately all the flooding has led to an advisory warning at the lake. There is a higher than normal bacteria load at the moment so no swimming for us or the dogs. Of course it would have helped if we'd seen the sign before letting the dogs go in on Thursday! The signs were just being put up and some people were in the water. The realization hadn't hit yet. The person posting the signs said sorry today I am the killer of fun. It can't be helped, safety is important. Hopefully the homes that were most affected by the flooding, those on the lake front, are safe and not too much damage or easily repaired. Well after that accidental swim the dogs had a good hosing off when we got home. They do still have our raging brook for swimming if this goes on long term. The brook is not typically affected by these bacterial issues since the water is moving and coming down the mountain and into the lake not from the lake or the river.
Wednesday- early morning:
Thursday- uh oh this isn't good!
Friday, early walks, no swims:
Ok that's dog walks caught up, this weekend I will try to catch up farm things.
