More water issues

When we last discussed this subject, the city had reconnected our water and left some steel plates where they had dug up the road. They repaired the road the next day and life was back to normal. That event wasn't worth a blog posting.

It's been raining. The rain is helping settle the soil where they dug in our front yard. Because the soil is settling, there is a depression in the front yard that is now a lake.

Lake Bear Valley (and the repaired road):
Over the years the rain will wash new soil into the lake bed and things will get back to normal. We don't see that part of the yard very much so it's not a big deal.

Oh, look, there is a volunteer peach tree blooming! We can see that from the house. (I hope the tree doesn't drown.)
