Rain and Wildlife

Was supposed to have a doctor appointment yesterday but their office called to put it off until tomorrow due to a water main break.  Don’t know if that is due to all the recent rain or not.

These geese seem okay with the rain and the high river.

The Great Miami River is pretty high.  It covers a part of the bike path.  When they were building the bike path they had to redo it at least 3 times before it stayed.  I wonder if it will still be there when the water goes down.

It hasn’t been all rain lately.  Silly and Teddy found some sunshine on the back deck a while back.

Teddy isn’t quite as good as Silly at finding the sunshine. 

I’m getting the estimates on the improvements to the house bit by bit.  The second company is coming to look at the fireplace tomorrow morning. 

I have one estimate on the windows.  The ones there now are about 80” tall and 28” wide, probably the original windows and glass.  The best information I have found for the age of this house is that the lot was defined in 1907. 

They will try to save the wavy glass that is in there now if they can.  Some people want that for restoring old houses.  I’ll take the new ones that are easy to tip in and wash without climbing a second story ladder.   Silly me.

Later….
