Most of the rain last night and today missed us. Looks like next decent chance is Thursday.

Generally if I open up a ditch, footers for a building or begin a project such as yours, it signals old mother nature to start raining. FOR DAYS :laughing:

A friend of mine ended a drought here a few years back by digging a hole for a swimming pool.

All that we need to do here is start up a timber harvest. My new get-rich-quick scheme is to buy a harvester and go into business ending droughts... something about the sound of that big diesel seems to make it rain.

If you don't mind, when you have the drone up sometime, give us an overall picture of your yard and where the lake is in relation to the yard etc.

I took the drone out yesterday and shot some video from the house back to the pond area for reference. My operating skills are not the best. It's actually my boys drone and I'm starting to get a better feel for it. I had to break it up into two videos due to flickers video length limitations. Looks like up to a half inch of rain then turning to a few inches of snow starting tomorrow afternoon into Friday morning here.

Here's a pic looking back toward the house from the pond area.

I've crashed my Drone three times. Every time was Pilot error. It takes flight time to become proficient. I haven't flown much this Winter so am very rusty. I enjoy doing it though. Thanks for the pics!!!

Here's what I woke up to this morning. Calling for 3-5" tonight and tomorrow. What the He**!!!!
