Our flood last week

   With the quick snow melt and the 5 inches of rain we got last Tuesday night and all day Wednesday, our main creek flooded.  We have 2 roads to get into town without having to go 20 miles around.  Both cross this creek so when it floods it makes life very inconvenient.  Thank goodness it was down in 2 days.

    Our usual road was definitely out of the question.

 

 

   The alternate road wasn't any better.  Some other people taking pictures too.

     A closer look at this spot.

 

     Someone left their truck in the wrong place.

It's a lot of water. Hope the land isn't sustaining a lot of damage from it. I think we're all feeling sorry for that truck owner.

Although I look forward to spring weather, I like it to warm up slowly to avoid this type of disaster.

Oh my God, Nancy, you were up to your neck in water. No wonder you posted several photo-essays I haven't seen....you were water-logged in your house.

That would stop anyone. Put your finger back in the dike.

Trapped like rats! Glad it was only for 2 days. Your new camera takes good pics. Thanks for sharing!
