More Flooding

Well my plea for no more rain didn't work. It has been awhile since I've posted and a lot has happened! On Wednesday night we got a lot more rain. They got a lot more in Austin, flooding the Cedar River. Remember this picture of the steep hill we went on 4-wheeling?

Here it is during the flood. It got a lot higher than this, but I wasn't there to take a picture! The water was even with the ground. Take one step into the water, and you'd be in for a big surprise!

We then went to my brothers to watch the water come up. They want to live on a lake but I don't think this way! They had moved the cattle again, and emptied out the basement in preparation. Here are a few pictures from earlier in the day.

Here are some more from just before we left. The water totally covered the driveway and was right up to the house.

They lucked out and didn't get much in the basement but it was close!
