Visitors and more rain

Yesterday, Thor's sister, Denali, came to visit. She took a while to make up to him, but by the time they left they were good friends. Scot and Sarah who own Denali originally found Thor shot and brought him to us to take care of last November. They rescue Pit Bulls and Rottweilers and have quite a menagerie of animals at their house. They only brought two of their dogs with them Denali and Marley(a very small pit bull). There were five dogs running and playing at camp all afternoon. By the end of the day they all collapsed into a deep happy sleep.
This is going to be remembered as the summer of the rain. We have more rain today and Pine creek is up above 2.5 not common for July. In fact, I might even take the canoe out tomorrow. I haven't been canoeing
for a couple years. Seems like when you move up to paradise you don't do any of the fun things you used to do when you came on vacation. The summer is full of work, and sawing wood.
The hummingbirds are happy with the rain they are always more active during a rain storm. It amazes me that the rain doesn't knock this little guys out of the sky. But during the rain and cool mornings and evenings they are the most active.
Well its off to work for the mountain girl. Mountain girl, Paula, logging out.
