The Big Flood

First of all, we want everyone to know that we are okay.  Our house is on a little higher ground, so we didn't have any flooding or damage.  However, the flood in the Columbia and Lexington area in South Carolina was of historic proportions.  You can read more about the record-breaking floods here.

Isn't this an abnormal amount of rain?

We only had a few puddles around our yard, but the ground is really wet.  So far, we've only had spurts where the electricity went out, but we're so thankful we're okay.

Here are a couple of photos of roads within five miles from us.  Mom Paula's office is closed tomorrow because of flooding, roads being closed, and concern for rising rivers under major bridges leading into downtown Columbia.  The weather service is calling for more rain today.

These photos came from people in the Columbia and Lexington area posting on Facebook.

Pee ess - If the vet's office is open today and the roads are passable, Mom Paula is going to take us both in for a check up with this virus.
