Wanting to Buy....
...a decent used boat that will hold a family of 4. Houseboats considered!!
Okay, so it's not quite that bad!
Yesterday I needed to run into town to ship a package, so we went to see how high the river was. It's amazing how many people go back River St. to check it out!!
The river edge is usually on the other side of those trees and down considerably much farther!! In fact when we went on the bike ride on Sunday the boys were playing down at the trees on the left of the picture!!
Flood level is 15 ft.
The access road that goes under the bridge is completely covered!
I've never see the water so high!! I'm sure it's worse today since we have been having heavy rains all morning!
This is a road north of us that leads back to a river landing we like to go to sometimes. You couldn't even get back the road!
Hopefully the rain and storms let up soon. Then we'll probably go check out the river again.
Dan just called and said that he can't come home from work the way he normally does. 71 is closed because of flooded rivers! So he is trying another way...I just pray he gets home safely!

I do hope he got home safely.
wow!
That is quite the rain/water. We had some very heavy rain this morning that I had to drive through to take Lanette to school and then by the time I was coming back home, the sun was shining and I saw a portion of a rainbow. Then 10-15 minutes later it was raining hard again. Now it is clearing up a bit again.
Only God can create weather like this.
