The Forecast Said "Showers and later, more showers".

 When I was feeding critters tonight I went out and picked up the fox food bowl in Kobae's yard and it had an inch and a half of water in it so we got at least that Monday night and Tuesday morning. About a two food drop off going to Last Hurrah and a little bit more at the bottom of the Base Camp driveway.


There's no point in fixing it while it still has water going through it as you just have to do it again. I went back up to the lodge to work for awhile until the creeks finished draining and Kobae was walking across the drive way to check out his house again. He walked down to the entrance like he was going in, threw a little mud on himself, then turned around and walked back out.

Nate called after a few minutes and said they had the bottom of the drive way fixed and he came and got a side by side, Tony, one of the guests took another one and after a bit of packing things down the driveway to Last Hurrah and now two approaches to the Base Camp entrance were good to go.

Most of the guests staying at various places around the property began gathering at the numerous road issues and grabbed shoves or dropped rocks. We headed out to do the driveway by the sign and it was ready to go in 30 to 45 minutes.


We all headed next door to the problem spot on the way to Last Hurrah but it had been mostly solved since we dug a big hole on the other side of the road which collected most of the water so damage wasn't too bad.
Couple new spots developed but I think I know how to fix those. We're getting better at this.


When we got back Kobae headed down the drive way like he was going hiking but it was cold and the wind was blowing and I didn't even put my hiking gear on. He slowed down,  then headed back, went in the lodge and into the laundry room. I closed the door and never saw him again so Jax and I got to get a little hike in, just the two of us.
