This pair of mallards has taken up residence across the street from our house on the Courthouse lawn or shall I say lake. You know you have a problem when! Is it any wonder that water is coming in our basement? We have been busy trying to stem the flow with minimal success. We have now decided we must dig down to the foundation at the front of our house, re-membrane the wall and put in some drainage tile and an external sump pump for these types of high-tide occasions. This is all well and fine except that it must be done by hand because the water pipes flowing to our house just happen to reside right where we need to be digging! On top of that Aaron has limited time trying to balance work with farming, neither of which are benefiting from all this water! Let's just say it has been a long, wet spring and things aren't really looking any better for summer! But hey, if those ducks have babies, man that would be cute!
