The rain came down in buckets last night/this morning. A gust of wind was strong enough to knock over the small plant on the patio table on the back deck. A check on the roads conditions when there was sufficient light to see revealed ankle deep water across the road. But the need for rain greatly out weighs any inconvenience the mud and muck might cause.
One of the fastest growing plants in southern Georgia is our variety of privet hedge. Along the lane that separates the Farm from the Planted Pines are thousands of these plants. After the main front of the rain had pass by this morning, we transferred about two dozen of the small shrubs around the goat/chicken pen. Another five or seven minutes of rain, while we were eating lunch, helped to water in the tender young plants in their new home.
And lunch!!! Cousin Janice surprised us with Christmas lunch:
Turkey and Dressing
Giblet Gravy
Creamed Green Peas
Cranberry Sauce
Ambrosia
Sweet Potato Soufflé
I had to take a nap and a walk in the woods afterwards. IN THAT ORDER!
By the way: Ducks won!
