Downpour last night!

In more ways than one!

Remnants of Isaac came through, it downpoured very hard, which caused the first flooded basement I've seen. We had water come through the root cellar out under the computer table, also over by our freezers, then on the other side of the basement by the laundry room....Took us a good time to get the water vacuumed up, then Andy found the drain by my sister's dog grooming set-up was completely plugged which I guess contributed to the random leaking, so he got a ton of dog hair out and still hasn't gotten it unplugged. No damage though to anything major.

THEN I go out to check the barn and my old horse is laying in the pasture in the rain, I call him, he comes up. I open a stall and he goes in and lays down, which is unusual for him. My mom and sister come out. He's old and it shows, so I'm thinking he's dying. He lays out flat a couple times and his legs shake a bit, my sister said he had a couple seizures. This lasted probably 10-15minutes, then he gets up and starts eating. This morning he's out and about, eating in the pasture right now, vet going to stop later but I suspect for my horse it's a matter of time, he can't keep weight on after last night, who knows what next.

Praise God though nothing really serious happened.
