Will and I ran down the hill this morning to check out the apartment.

The flood is quite a sight. Our apartment is directly to the left.

 



This is the apartment building adjacent to ours.

 



If you look closely, you can see the water line on our building (on the left).

 



The water has receeded about thirty yards down the road. The shimmery, oily water is home to tadpoles and some trash.

 

So, there was less than a foot of water surrounding our apartment. How much got in? Well, we don't know that answer. It will be a while yet.

I am so amazed at that! We could fill our resevoirs up and have extra to spare if you guys could somehow harness that this way! God bless you guys and keep you safe through all that!

Unbelievable! Do you have a boat? ;)

Hope you guys didn't get a lot of damage!
