....bring May floods!!
The last few days of April and the first few days of May brought several inches of rain to our area. The moisture was a real blessing!! All the rivers in the area spilled over their banks in many places. There were hardly any fields along the rivers that weren't under water!
The road Dad takes to work every morning......you can't really see it, but just beyond the first bridge there is a second one, much smaller and a little lower, and the water crested only about a foot or so below it. Anymore rain and the bridge would've been underwater.
The river-bed in this picture is about 50 yards past the trees, so there were several hundred feet of field under water on both sides of the river.
The river-bed is just beyond that row of trees........as you can see the water rose a lot!!
Okay, so it was a
little muddy!! :)
