The Storm

Every once in awhile life throws bumps in our way.  We are going along our merrily way and then bam—a bump.  That just happened here at The Ranch.  As I shared Saturday afternoon we had spent all week working towards and achieving electricity for the future cabins that will be built.  We had our plans all laid out, at least for the next few days.  Rick needed to address some issues in San Antonio and so the plan was for him to go spend a few days there.  Then-bump.  It took less than one minute for all our plans to change. 

The bump occurred Saturday evening.  No one could have predicted it, hopefully a once in a lifetime storm.  I made a slideshow movie to share what happened.  It might have been a huge bump, but it was just a bump.  We will recover and move on.  It is now two days since the bump occurred and I am not sad.  Rick is not sad.  Instead we praise God for protecting us and the animals.  He is good.  The bump was really a blessing.  When the cabins are built they will be stronger and safer because of Saturday’s bump.
