Odd shots - Misplaced bridge?


The main creek really does run under the bridge seen just beyond the "35" sign. But with a lot of rain in a short period last Wednesday, water flowed down the near side of the flood plain. There is a culvert under the road where the water is flowing. The good news is that there was no damage and the road reopened Thursday afternoon.

Day 133 - Rain and more rain

It rained steadily yesterday afternoon and last night and when I checked our gauge this morning, this is what I found:
and this is what I saw across the fields behind our house. Compare this view to my post of April 21.

This afternoon I went out for a look-see at the flooding. Here is the view looking back toward our house from the other side of the fields. Notice the geese in the lower left enjoying a swim.

And another photo looking to the right of the above. Notice the fence post in the water. I also posted more photos on my other blog.
