Seems like we are having a 100 year flood every three years now.

Take no notice of the rising water.Take no notice where rivers run dry.
Pretty sure I read about stuff like this before

It sucks for money when you are a sideshow freak. Nobody comes to the fair.

Re: I maybe floatin pretty soon
Sorry about your situation cbass.
We get a lot of rain here but it is spread out over the months.
If we get two or more inches over night, we flood too.
Keep one eye on the crick and one eye on your exit strategy.
Good luck!

I have a backpack 'go bag' packed for natural or man made disasters.
Flashlight, spare sidearm, first aid, copies of ID, numbers of contacts, some cash and some shiny things, water purification tabs. Iodine tabs, multi tool, etc.
Don't rely on luck, give yourself an edge.

Do not limit yourself to what others think is reasonable or possible.

People gettin flooded that never thought hey would have to deal with it.

Re: I maybe floatin pretty soon
Rainin' to beat the debbil up here in NY today. Never seen it like this. There's a minor river crossing my neighbor's lawn but that's all 30-40 ft altitude downslope. Count me lucky, my house is almost top of the hill. Hope you're OK today cbass, and all others too.
