A Very Wet Summer
Last year this time our pond was almost dry and the back creek was completely dry. This year, we’ve got a full pond and the back creek continues to flow (though it did dry out for a while in July).
A picture from last year (August 23, 2010):
A couple pictures from this year (August 17, 2011):
And one of the creek from this year (August 18, 2011):
Oh, and we got ducks (Blue Swedish)…more on that later.
I was really worried when your pond dried up! Love your year to year comparisons, the past 2 years of weather have been so strange. You have the prettiest farm!
You’re welcome! I love the year-on-year comparisons, too. Helps me keep things straight (if I can remember to take the same photos). Since we’ve been here: Wet Year, Dry Year, Wet Year. Don’t know what normal is…maybe “nothing” is normal.
