Flood Watch

It rains so much here. And right now since it's cold, it's always muddy as well. I thought it was funny when they announce on the radio that there was a flood watch in effect tonight. What, like we actually can get more rain? Wow! We'll see what happens. I guess it's suppose to rain pretty hard tonight. Usually the rain is a light drizzle which lasts all day long. Rarely do we get hard down pours and it's really even more exciting to have thunder! It just rumbles and keeps rolling because there are no mountains to stop it! Luckily, we are not in a flood prone area. There is a creek below the house, but we are well above it to not have to worry about flooding problems. I think it's neat that the pansies are growing right now. I wonder how long into the winter they will last, or will they last all winter until it's too hot next summer? I think I might have to go buy some for my flower pots next to the house and see what happens.

Did it flood? How are the kids dealing with the rain?

No flooding, although the storm caused a tree to fall a block a major road and Alex's school bus was about 45 minutes late picking him up. No other dramas to report.

Welcome to the EAST. Rain and more rain. Seemed to never dry out. Have you found a blanket yet covered in mildew and mold? Rebecca left some blankets outside in a pile of leaves. The mold won't wash out. =) Happy sailing!
