We're Floating Away!!!!









So starting Last Thursday morning we got over 8 inches of rain in about 16 hours. These are pics of the front. The first two are at the Shop Driveway and the last two are at the other drive way. You can tell in some of the pics that the water was even higher than it was when I took those pics on Friday morning. The road was completely flooded and the water made it far up on the shop driveway side. Most of the water has receded now but there is still water rushing on the other side of the road. It is something. On a side not we also flooded in the shop. The fram stall and even a little in the paint booth. There was about 2 inches of standing water in the frame stall. When we built both of those additions we built in righ on the ground level and that area just happens to be the natural slope where all the water runs in the front yard. So we are going to have to build a trench to divert the water around the building for the next time we have a torential rain.
It has also become cold here already. Overnight lows in the 30's and daily high's around 60. Needless to say we have the heat on and we had Chili for dinner tonight.
Hope everyone has a great week!!!!
