MORE Perspective....


Forgot to include this photo (THANK YOU, JODY) in my post for Friday.

Here's an additional "perspective" of our place. (Click on photo for larger view.) This photo was taken today, we believe. For bearings, north is the right-hand edge of the photo.

The "closing parenthesis" shape is the dike around our house/yard that ties into the highway at the top and bottom. The large grouping of grain bins in the center of the photo is our elevator. (Thankful we got all of our grain out, just in case!) The long brown rectangle on the other side of the highway is that field with the dead strip down the middle. Behind our house (in the center of that field) you can see how the water is in the ditches and into the field in places, but not bad.

Traveling west (or upward in the photo) you can see the fields have water in the lower areas. At the very top of the photo (about a mile west of us) you can see water water water. The Little Tarkio Creek levee is what is holding that water back from us. Did I mention how thankful I am for THAT??
