Let the rain come down

The rain came down.  In gushers of drops and thankfully no thunder or lightening.  I was at lunch in another town.  My bloggy friend, Anna and her little girl were up visiting friends.  I am so happy I got to visit them both.

 

The pond is full.

 

 

Wwwaaaatttteeerrr!

 

 

 Took this picture of a dragon fly this morning.

 

 

 The ducks are happy, happy, happy.

 

This is Dottie laying eggs on Hubs workbench.

 

 

The pond is full.

 

 

Dottie likes to ride in the Rhino.

 

 

This is Ruby following along.

Our pond

First he drained the pond, then Hubs dug out our pond. Thankfully, he dug it out before the rain came.

And dug even deeper.

Here's what it looks like now.

 

 

A man's work is never done

 Here is my new chicken coup that Hubs built for me.  I can't wait to get new baby chicks and ducks.  This coup is stronger and better made than the last one.  I like it has a door where I can go in a pet the chicks. I think it is best to keep them in a fenced in area around the coop and then lock them up at night.

 This is where Hubs is digging out the pond some more to make it deeper.

 This is about the level of the pond at all times.  Last summer he drained it out and added some clay filler to seal the pond.  One day we will have fish.

 It doesn't look like he dug much out from this end, but he did.
