Flood Pictures

Jen lived here between 1992 and 1996. The river began flooding in 1997 so this was a new experience for all of us. The power of Mother Nature is fierce!

Everywhere you looked the "river" had transformed into a "lake".


The river was about 12" below the bottom girders of the bridge.


There was a bit more space under the railroad trestle on the other side of road.


Lots of stairs going to nowhere.



But even in the throes of mass destruction, the beauty is breathtaking!


And then there are these two yahoos!


This flag became the marker for the girls to gauge the water level! Fin was slightly obsessed with the flag in the water!
