When we bought our land, we lived at Mundo for the first 2 years while we got some infrastructure put in place. The river flooded in the middle of the night, 5 AM we got to wade out and escort Bessie to a different pasture. Cows are not that fond of wading... The chickens were up on their roosts, their little chicken toes already in the water. My joke for the day was "I always wanted a house boat, but not THIS house!" Good times, good times... lol!
Wow! They are some serious stuff, and I like your joke. Good attitude to keep!
