Spring Storm on Lake |
Well, it happened...I put up my martin house on Monday even though the water was pretty high and I couldn't pound the main post as deep into the water as usual. Evie was upstairs, I was down when I heard her yell the martin house was falling down. I ran to the front of the house just in time to see it splash into the drink. So, I got my waders out once again, waded out into the rain and gray and, fortunately, was able to find it using my feet. The water was churned up enough so I could not see it sitting on the ground. I was able to reach under water, grab the poles and house and walk it out of the lake. I set it on my dock pieces and wait till I return in early May to put it up again.
We are getting things done; both are almost packed, I cleaned out the garage and put the Pilot in it for a couple of weeks. Evie also gave me a haircut so I went to the gym, showered, and went to the library to pick up some books for the trip. So, we can relax tonight, have fish tacos, and watch I good movie. We finished the TV series Damages in three days and really like it, a compelling and confusing story but it made us keep coming back for more. I highly recommend it.
