     Flooding reflections…taken early this morning.

    I love the colors early in the morning…or perhaps, the lack thereof.

    The 'sides' are melting, and there is a rock solid base in the middle….My favorite photograph spot this Spring.

    Here is what our road looked like as I drove home from work. The right side is a field, and of course I am driving on the road….off to the left is the overflowing river.

    and, as I approached our driveway…the river has leaked into our yard.

    While driving today, I did notice that there is water running, but not rushing, that the flow has slowed down.  I am not sure if the river has crested, but I am hoping so.

    Our home is up on a knoll, so it will remain dry….and our backyard also has dried up nicely, where our septic field is.  Mostly the river is leaking out of the river bends, flooding the road.

    Water is flowing out of the river and onto the road….and, I wonder how many fish, snappy turtles etc…are enjoying their expanded river!
