December 24, 2009 – Driveway Lake
For the last 36 hours or so, we’ve been waiting for the rain/ice to turn to snow. Rain all last night.
Now the driveway’s a pond and I’ve had to make drainage paths to try to drain as much water as possible off before the temperature drops one or two more degrees and the water becomes glare ice.

It is a shame the water collected on the drive. It would have made a fantastic skating pond! Thaw trenching is one of my fondest farm memories.

I’m with you – the channeling of water in spring melt periods is one of the most satisfying temporary jobs around!
