We are really fortunate that we're not directly affected by the flooding. We didn't need to sandbag to save our downtown area, Jon's office doesn't need to close early to make sure he can get home, and we don't need to worry about being evacuated. For the most part, our back yard is really wet, the sump pump runs all the time, and there's pretty much just one way to get anywhere.But today the kids and I had to run an errand, and found this. It's kind of along the "back way" to Jon's work and Sarah's house. The treeline in the distance is where the river is supposed to be. The building on the right is a Casey's. (Dad, Quick Supply is just not quite in the picture on the right).
Good news though (I guess) - According to the person we were visiting, in 1993 the river was up to the road in the foreground.
