THE DAY THE SCHOOL BUS ACTUALLY TRIED TO DRIVE ALONG VALERY ROAD AND PICK THE KIDS UP WITHOUT CHECKING ON WATER DEPTHS FIRST. IT DIDN’T MAKE IT AND HAD TO REVERSE OUT.  AND LEO HAD TO COME HIGHER AND HIGHER UP THE PADDOCK AS THE WATERS ROSE.

LEO AND THE LAKE

JUNE 2011. FRONT PADDOCK. It looked rather  good as a lake.
