Did you hear about the rain?

If not, here are a few pictures.  All the rain we didn't get in December appears to be coming down in a rush.  Or at least it was yesterday which combined with the melting snow made for some exciting waterways.  Yes, we had snow last week too and it was so pretty.  Snow around here is great because it never seems to last for long so we don't have that ucky gray slushy mess that is that part of snow you want to go away, we just get the fluffy white stuff which quickly melts when the weather shifts back to rain.  At the winery, we actually had a moment of concern that our pond could overflow but fortunately the rain stopped, well at least slowed down, and the levels are dropping again.  To see the rain pictures and to learn about the piece of equipment pictured please click here.
