The Canal water is here

We get our irrigation water from the Bear River.  Joel calls it the Mighty Bear.  When the water is "turned on" the canal company lets the water out of a dam into the canal.  We have water rights from the canal that feed into ditches along our fields.  We flood irrigate our fields with this water.

Here's the canal with just an inch or so of water before irrigation season began.

Here are two photos of the canal.  Full as can be.  Water is life.

If you've eaten today, thank a farmer.
