Reminds me of my place


When we had that tornado here about 15 months ago, a branch took out the power lines at the SE corner of my property and the power company asked if they could drive their trucks down there to repair it. It's not like I had a lot of choice - either that or do without power. Their bucket truck got stuck because of all the rainfall, then the truck they brought in to retrieve it got stuck, so they called in yet another truck to pull both of them out. As a result, my place was crisscrossed with ruts a good six inches deep. Before I got them filled in, grass was growing where it was once weeds and clover, and even after I got them filled, you can still see where they were - the grass grows greener and faster there.
