Storms~

It may have been storming inside, but it was storming outside as well. The first storm that came through two days ago, decided to take out the fence that keeps Cotie in. There was a good 10 foot section that was knocked out, took out the stock fencing as well as the hot tape. Well, I found it that night after I got home from work. The tree was fairly substantial. Thankfully Cotie didn't think it was necessary to go on a walk-about, since he was still there and staying away from the tree. so, we broke out the chainsaw and cut the thing apart. The base of the tree was resting on another tree, so a good section was up in the air, when it was released, it suddenly pitched the opposite way. Like a see saw. Cotie must be pretty mellow since he didn't even flinch while the saw was running. We did what we had to, repaired the fence and all was well. Hopefully we won't have more substantial storms come through. All the fields are totally saturated so more rain and it will be Leigh's Lake here.
