RAIN, RAIN, GO AWAY

We have been having alot of rain lately. The
picture above and the ones below show what
happens when you get a heavy downpour of
1/2 inch or more at one time. A construction
project (now defunct) had a retaining pond
built to hold back rain water, but as you can see
it does not work very well. Our back yard is
a raging river.

This shows the water covering the street.

Another view of the back yard.


Water pouring across the street. This was taken
after the rain had stopped. Since the company
that had the construction project went bankrupt,
there is nothing that can be done about this problem.
We can only pray we do not get to many of these
heavy downpours.
