Now You See 'Em...

Heavy rains brought the river up suddenly. Mike phoned to say a resident had phoned him Sunday night to say the river was up over the road by eight feet! A log jam blocked the road in. He drove up over the ridge and down the "escape route" to see that the water had risen completely over our lower meadow. Mike asked the resident about the supplies he'd placed in the meadow. "There were no supplies in the meadow!" was the reply. With trepidation, I headed up early this morning as planned - not knowing what I would find. When I asked Mike what he has put in the meadow, he replied, "A stack of plywood and....um....uh....the timbers from Ohio." The two and a half hour drive allowed me to arrive at a place of peace that whatever awaited me, I could trust in the providence of the Father. Here is where the supplies had been stacked. The water had swept everything away...


but thanks be to God!!! they had only been picked up, carried down the horse trail towards the river, and placed back down still wrapped in the plastic covering. Nothing was lost, though I did have to go through the process of relinquishing my "ownership" of it. Wow, that was quite an experience! Montana is standing guard over the piles. Good dog!
