Water, water everywhere.

Snow has all melted away but water is running everywhere. Mud should dry up in a couple of days. Observing water flow from heavy rain followed by snow should be helpful in rehabbing ponds and possibly new locations for additional ponds. All five ponds are full and the spring fed pond up the hill from the house is still overflowing. The large pond about 4/10 of a mile up the North hill is covering between 3 to 4 acres right now. May have to get a rowboat.

On a positive note we now have water. The well is up and running, good clear water with no problems. One less thing to have to replace.
We have been going about a mile up the road where a spring has been running continuously for as long as anyone here can remember, to collect water.
