Storm Central...Part 2

Tornado warnings, thunderstorms, heavy rains, high winds, flash flooding...will it ever end? The ground is so saturated right now that there is no where for the water to go anymore. I'm afraid to even listen to the news to find out what is in store for us next.

This was the view of our front yard yesterday afternoon. I'm standing above a culvert that will normally create a small stream that runs along the side of our property when we get a lot of rain. Yesterday we had a foot of water surrounding our entire house.




This picture is looking out over our driveway towards our neighbors where the water is making its way down to the lake.



Need I even say that our basement is flooded? We will be spending the day ripping out all of our carpeting and salvaging everything else we can.
