Easy Like Sunday - Not

This wasnt a very nice weekend.  It rained fer both days.  Really hard today!  So we were trapped inside fer 2 days and were tired of it.

Then we looked outside the front windows an were amazed.  The drainage creek was all full and rushing down.
We were flooded!
At one point, the water couldnt go away fast enough, so it went right across the street!
This is our main storm drain.  Dont see it, do you?  Thats cause it keeps getting covered with tree junk.  Its unnerneath that pile in the center.
When THAT happens, the water flows along our yard to the other drain.  Most rains, water never gets there at all.
The drainage creek DOES have some nice big rocks it it and those make nice waterfalls.  TBT likes them.  WE think they look dangerous.  But, of course, we are never actually in the front yard.  We just look through the windows!

  3. That is a lot of rain!
    We had rain this weekend too, but since we live on a hill it runs away from the house.
    There is a big puddle at the bottom of our stairs though.
    We are glad to be indoors.

  6. Our weekend is like that too. Heavy heavy rain and flooding. Sigh. Your Country should clean off those drains. Can TBT twist their arms some?

  8. Wow, your own waterfall! We may get ponds in the yards with heavy rain but no running water.

  9. The waterfall looks kinda neat. We are flooded here too. Mommy had to wade through a gigantic puddle to get to the mailbox, and Chimera had to jump over a giant lake to get to her fence post.
