Today we got into our flooded yard and rescued our chickens and fed some cats. We also grabbed a few things from our house and our hired help did the same. Water has come down a foot, about 3 1/2 to go. Day by day, still thankful for all the support!

Our sincerest thanks go out to Canadian farm co-operative Gay Lea Foods for this very generous donation in support of BC dairy farms affected by the floods—truly, farmers helping farmers!
