We had a week long blast of rain a couple weeks ago. It caused the roads to our house to be nearly impassable. Massive amounts of dirt washed over the main road that comes through the wineries to the entrance to our neighborhood. And then, part of our yard caved in. We have a steep slope in front of our house and all the water tends to drain to one area. Before this rain there was already a deep trench where water had been draining. Bodhi and Diesel fell in it one time and I had to wait for Dan to get home to get them out. So with the help of Lance and Zach, Dan filled it all in with dirt and put in a new drain and pipe. Then with the rains it all washed away and got even worse. It started to creep towards the house and made us a little nervous. Dan borrowed a Bobcat from the neighbor and started filling in the crater. What he's done so far has held up with current rain. Hopefully it will stay until we can work on it some more! These pictures were taken after Dan started filling in.
