I hope you are sitting on your boat as you type this, Tim-ster! :)
Good luck.

Doing ok, Harry, but I always have one available. My wife said.. What
do we do in the north levee breaks? I said "Head for the pontoon!"

No actually there is a lot of water here, but not the flooding they're
getting in the more southern states. Alll the run-off has to go
somewhere. Here, the fields are flooded, but nobody's houses are
underwater that i know of. But the verticle drain pipe at my folks
old farm place is 8 ft. high, and at 10PM the water against the levee
(which is the lane to the drive way) was over the cap, The Leveee is
10' above ground, and with a 1' drain pipe it still takes a while to
drain the water down. That's a lot of pressure on that levee.
Hopefully it will be drained down by this evening.

so far so good. But I feel it for Ky. So. IN. and portions of Tenn,
Mis. etc..


How far away from a flooding river are you? I get kidded sometimes about
living close to the Bay, but we're 115' above it here. If the water
rises 116', I won't be worried about the house, because most of the
eastern seaboard will be under water.
