Weaned, For Real Sure Now

Today, the puppies had regular kibble. After a course of their pre-swelled kibble, they seamed to still be hungry. Margie slipped them them dry kibble and they gobbled it up.




And, today we have flooding in central Iowa. As in the Great Flood of 1993, rain has continued to train just NW of Des Moines, filling the Raccoon and Des Moines River basins. Saylorville Dam is projected to be overtopped sometime later this evening, and that's with an additional 6 ft tall flood fence installed after the '93 event. When that happens, flow down to Des Moines will double. Businesses and expensive apartments in the downtown area, near Court Street, are already flooding. We are high on a hill overlooking the Raccoon River valley, so we are safe.
