We have had some crazy weather! Flooding, flooding and more flooding! I live on a creek that most of the year, is a quiet, slow and shallow creek. Not so this spring. We had flooding like I can't remember. The road just 1/2 mile up was closed. The photo I took was several hours after it got bad. That is one of many problems we had in my area. I had to go back roads to get to town and even then I drove through water. I am happy I was driving an suv.
My back yard took a hit too. I have never seen the creek that high or angry. At one point it decided to send some of it's over flow through my back yard. Thankfully the water didn't leave a mess on my yard. My neighbors weren't so lucky. Their yard got washed away. What a mess the water made. Where there was grass is now a huge pile of stone and debris. They are thankful it did not affect their home. As am I. On a happier note, we had an impromptu gathering at our fire last week. One friend stopped, another called and before we knew it we were having a small party. My wonderful husband brought home pizza and my friends husband stopped. We sat at the fire later than we should have as it was a work night and some of us had to get up and go to work. Happily, I was NOT one of them. I don't do well with out my sleep. Does the word bear mean anything? That's what I am on less than seven hours. One of my favorite things is a bunch of friends stopping and having fun. I have to say, I have the best friends! I treasure each one. On that happy note, Till next time.
