They've Cut the Road

People would say - I heard they 'cut the road' to drain your field...
I'd never heard that expression before - but Scout and I walked up there with Jack and - sure enough - they've cut the road...

...we knew the road was closed because the water from our field had covered the road completely...

...but I had no idea they'd do anything as drastic as cut a big hole in the middle of a good road...
...I'm sure the field will drain quickly now - but we're all wondering what they will do with the big hole in the road - will they install a culvert or a small bridge - because you know the water will remember where it went before if they just try to build the road back there...
