Watergaps – Work or Play
The Rattlesnake Creek finally went down enough this week to fix the watergaps. We all donned our mud boots and trudged down to the bank of the creek. As I peered over the edge and saw the breakaway fence was caught in a huge tree and the water was still deep and swift, I was leary to get in. However, Laramie had already jumped in the water before I got a chance to say that we would wait and let the water receed a bit more. We managed to get the tree out of the wire, untangled the hangers, unwired them and pulled the breakaway fence back into place. The current was still very strong, so it was a good thing there were four of us struggling in the water to put it back in place. I stretched it up, put posts and clips in and worked on the fence while Canyon, Elizabeth and Laramie swam in the chest-deep water. They are under the impression fixing water gaps is recreation. From experience, it is engrained in me that water gaps are work. Notice no one had time to take a photo of me working!
