The Flood of 2010

On Tuesday evening we had a short little storm that brought in a bunch of rain in about 20 minutes.  Our pool dry ground just couldn't take it.  Heath had put in some drainage with the new landscaping but I am not sure anything would have gotten this much rain out of the yard.



Both sides of the yard got it...as you can see, this is the side we haven't done yet.  Although, you can see the hosta garden.



Some low spots in the middle of the yard.




The water was over the floor of the dog kennel.




I can't complain and neither can the plants...they were very happy and I didn't have to turn on the sprinklers!!



The best thing one can do when it's raining is to let it rain. ~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
