We've had several days of rain, yesterday it rained so hard that you couldn't see out the windows. We have a creek that runs through our property, and at one point it cuts right across making it impossible for us to cross to the back of our property with our 4 wheelers or even by foot sometimes. So last Summer we finally put in a culvert and gravel/rock road ..................... it didn't take Mother Nature long to wash it out! It will probably be July before it will be dry enough to take a truck back there to bring in more culverts and more rock and stone.

Winds have been strong for several days, but last night they really picked up. Woke us up at about 1 am , and I truely thought some windows could blow out. None did, but we woke up to find my greenhouse had dissapeared to parts unknown. It was one of those octogon shaped tent units that would have been standing for 3 years this summer. I imagine it took off like a kite, I've used the bonoculars, but can't see any sign of it.

We're still under a high wind advisory, but things have calmed down for the moment. Snow is flying again though, and my feet are cold again. :(

You just never know what Mother Nature is going to throw at you in Michigan.
