Waterfall renewal

November 07, 2016  •  Leave a Comment

There's noise in the local millpond waterfall, and, as if in confirmation that the world isn't about to dry out... yet... the color on the US Drought Monitor's Connecticut map has, for our area, changed from the orange D2 designation for Severe Drought to the D1 Tan color for the Moderate condition. This is cause for celebration, and as I watched and listened to the blessings of water going over the stone dam, I rejoiced, both for the recent rains and for the fact that I seem to have beaten back the dam-killing efforts of the local beavers. They, of course, won't stop trying, but neither will I. And neither, I hope, will the weather, which, with any luck, will be wetter than normal in the future.
