Got up at buttcrack of dawn yesterday and again today.
We've had a lot of rain and storms and am again watching the river rise & snake across my Easternmost pastures.



Power went off Tuesday night 8pm and was off until about 10pm last night. 
Yesterday morning:

Went ahead and fired up the generator yesterday just before noon so the freezer and fridge stuff could get some cold air and all our electronics needed a charge, and I needed to pump up some water for toilet too. That genset is soooo LOUD! Keurig coffee this morning, since I didn't get the old school coffee pot washed before crashing late last night.

I went up the hill about a mile away to the nearest convenience store and this was parked outside. Mudder.



Couldn't get positioned to get both vehicles in the shot, but Texas Dept public Safety (Highway Patrol) car was sitting off to the side of the parking lot, and I suspect waiting for the 4 wheeler owner to come out of the store. They aren't allowed on the roads or right-a-ways here and that one wasn't licensed in any way. Hope the trooper just gave him a verbal warning tho. Out here in the country, things are a bit less 'tight'.
(I could have driven one of my farm tractors up there and it would have been perfectly legal as long as I put the little orange plastic triangle placard on the back of it)
