Picking Connie up! by happypat

Picking Connie up!

So much water everywhere. We ploughed through lots of floods & as you can see Cathy’s garden is flooded. Good job we had a four wheel drive & our wellies on!
Connie had two wet walks. Had to be very careful as our usual walk along the river bank was a bit scary. I had to have her on the lead when we were near it, I was frightened she might get a bit neat & get swept in.
Jack took this photo as we arrived.

Three good things:
1. Flooding is so bad but at the moment seems to be staying out of the houses but many towns in the north & midlands on flood watch tonight.
2. Good lead walking by Connie today.
3. A new President of the United States of America, here hoping he can bring the country together once more. He needs all the prayers he can get!
The weather is just dreadful today!

Love it! Connie knows good times are coming. I like the way you’re greeting Jack and Harry is greeting Connie! Also - nice motor!

So much rain and everywhere is so muddy.I'd love to go for a walk in a local country park but I use a rollator and it's just too muddy

Oh I see Connie running out to meet you. I hope the floods are not as bad as last time. I feel sorry for those people who have been flooded time and time again

Water or no water Connie is pleased to see you ! Its horrible all this flooding and the weather-forecast is of more rain !
January 20th, 2021

@denful Just dreadful...two days of non stop rain!
@judithg Connie was very excited, she’s had a couple of quiet days with not much walking so i think she thought there was going to be a bit of action!
@carolmw Well it was slippy enough for me Carol, so stay inside! Not worth the risk!
@busylady Not yet but I wouldn’t have liked to have been driving my car which is much lower than this one...quite deep floods on the road but the river is still between its banks.
@beryl She was so pleased to see us Beryl but always had to get home again to see her ‘mum’!
@maggiemae The UK is a rainy country maggie that’s why it’s so green but we could do with more if last weeks frost.
@bkbinthecity Thanks Brian.

Crikey that looks wet AND cold. We get floods in Australia but it isn't cold. You look quite rugged up for the weather conditions though

So much rain in your country. We are always complaining about our rainy weather, but this looks dreadful.

Good weather for Labradors. Hope things dry out soon!
January 20th, 2021  
Ha ha love this composition! We've come off lightly with Storm Christoph, hoping things ease up for areas more affected.

@onewing It’s not cold luckily Babs.
@sarah19 It’s depressing isn’t it Sallie...wet, nothing open, dark & scary!
@gijsje I think we are known for our rain but we do seem to have had rather a lot.
@bkp Yes Labrador’s don’t mind the wet, Connie was ok but not so keen on the rain though she had her wet weather gear on.
@boxplayer the south missed it thank goodness ...last thing we need just now!

A really great shot. Well done Jack.
January 20th, 2021

Crikey! I’ve never seen their garden flooded before!
January 20th, 2021  
Hope the weather turns for you - there certainly is a lot of water to drain away!

Totally agree re our new president

Oh, me, it's wet with you! Nice photo that Jack took! Sleet falling here today. And it's windy. Not a nice day at all.
January 21st, 2021  
Oh my goodness, you do have a lot of water there! Hopefully today will be a brighter and calmer day weatherwise. I bet Connie revels in it all!
Thought of you today. I have posted a memory from NZ of a place I am sure you must have been at some point!

Great shot with her little head showing her anticipation, and yours 😉 who can resist a dog, they make the wettest day a joy!

Your #3 Good Thing is a VERY good thing! I feel as though a weight has been lifted from my soul.
