We have had rain all week and we now have "lake-front" property. Not really, but it is crazy to see. The news is pretty wild, what with dams failing and roads collapsing. As for us, we are pretty much blocked in right now, due to road closures. (Meaning we could still get out, but we are cut off from most of the rest of town. Luckily the frontage road was still open, so if we needed to- we can still get to the highway.) Other than static-y phone reception we seem to be doing fine. We are fortunate though. Many friends in the area have flooded basements and there are some power outages and some homes have even been evacuated.
Here's the view from our house
This is the road into our subdivision, which has been closed...
This is the river of water flowing between our subdivision and the next one over...
the sidewalk between the two has been washed away.
(see, here's as close as I was willing to get, but the sidewalk ends there...)
Our park, which is across the street from us...
