Big storm the other night and other stuff...

We had a super big storm the other night...lots of loud banging, cracking and rain. We're pretty lucky 'cause that stuff doesn't really bother us too much. Just one big loud crack made us raise our heads...then we went right back to sleep.

But in the middle of the night we heard something unusual. And we saw what it was in the morning on our walk. Luckily Mum thought she should move our Rover to a safer place because she knew the storm was coming and that it was probably going to be a big one. So she moved it away from the 60-70 foot pine trees.

Good thing because what we saw in the morning made us breathe a sigh of relief! Right next to where the car had been parked was a big downed limb from one of the 60 foot trees. Whew...lucky us, our dog agility car is safe!!! And the cabin too....that's why folks look into that adt pulse pricing to help monitor and secure their home, fur sure!

We ventured out more on our walk and saw lots of downed trees...

We put the logs to good use and did a little 'environmental agility' as they say....here's a quick vid of me walking the log!


Spring has sprung on the Mountain here...the Dogwoods are blooming...

And the little woodland flowers too. Viola...

Bloodroot...

Everything is green, and the wild chives have popped up all over the pasture. You can see them taller than the grass, dotted all along this area of the pasture near the northwest fence...

Lots of new smells, mud and yuck to explore around here in the Spring, gotta love that! Hope all of you are getting a little sun and warmth your way.

  1. Three cheers for spring and for timely foresight! That's one big dang tree limb.
