Not looking good at all. Probably going to have to drain the hot tub tomorrow and start blocking it up. This rise needs to stop soon.


The parking lot at the State Park. I'm going to have to take a boat to the shop Mon. since the road to the campground is flooded. I've had enough!

Another 18" and the stuff on the porch starts getting wet, 23" and its in the shed.
State Park is closed due to flooded roads, but I still have to work. :-(



Hot tub should be about the same as the porch, house has another 53" to the floor.

Water was up to the FORD lettering on the tailgate this morning, hope I don't have to pull it the rest of the way up on the ramp, it really wasn't built for a full sized diesel pickup.

11.5 " to the porch this evening, but it only rose 1" today. Hopefully the crest is coming soon!

Holy cow! Hope the water starts dropping quick for you. Maybe we'll have a week or so without rain so things can drain down a bit.

A half inch fell Thurs and we got a shower yesterday, but the good news, the river is starting to fall! If the forecast holds true I should see land here by next weekend.

What do you do when there's water everywhere? Borrow a kayak from work and go play in the backwater!
At least I'm seeing some "dry" ground, but the fishy stench needs to go away.
