Flood




I know that anybody that lives in North Georgia has a story to tell and pictures to go along with it. We got about 15 inches of rain from Sunday AM through mid day Monday at our house. I had to drain the rain barrel seven times Sunday and Monday and I finally left it open to drain all the time. When I went to work on Monday, the drain was wide open and the barrel was overflowing. We came out OK (Kelda's art room in the basement got pretty wet and we will have to pull out the carpet.) We also had some water on the carpet, near our fireplace but it is almost dry this morning.
These pictures are from across the street at our neighbor's house.

I tried to go by Dick & Judy's yesterday on my drive home from work but I could not get across thier driveway. It was flooded. According to Alan, they have an inch or two of water in the basement.
