Recent Flooding

I finally find time to do this post now that the rivers are going back down.  It is hard to believe that amount of rain that we received a few weeks ago.  One Sunday we were going to go to Nick's parents for the evening and started to hear reports that there was water over the road.  So we headed out like normal. :) Fortunately the water never made it over the road, but as you will see from the pics it was as close as anyone had ever seen it. 

What I find crazy is that there shouldn't be any water in any of these pictures!  There should be crops growing where there is water!  At least it stopped raining, but not before many farmers lost their crops and many homes were damaged. :(
