I Finally Got that Pool

Both creeks flooded due to the delightful weather we've been having. Of course, since that back creek flooded, that also caused flooding in the stallions stall. Let me tell y'all something, it isn't fun wet vac'ing a stall, particularly a stallion's stall.

How is everyone else doing? I heard it's supposed to be even worse tomorrow. If it's spread out throughout the day, the barn should be alright, but if it's not....

I got a indoor pool [that shinny floor is 6" of water]



We have started packing because we are in a flood zone [yes we do have flood insurance] and this ain't over yet!

Another inch and it would have been in my garage where I keep the platinum. Thankfully it looks like the creeks went down through the nite. I don't care if it does what it's doing right now, but if just downpoors and stays, that's the issue. I think I have one of those creeks that feeds Mills Creek and mine flooded pretty bad.

I'm 50 yards from a major creek [Cedar Creek] that feeds into Old Hickory Lake and is out of it's banks already. Now its raining so hard I can't see the road so the flooding will probably be worse than last night.
Got all the important stuff packed so I think we will just drive to Utah, don't hear much out of them

It's not raining here, I'm fixin to head back out to the barn and relocate everyone in case it does flood again. Atleast then I would just have to worry about the two little ones out there.

We had to leave because the creek decided to flow all around my house so we all got in my truck [dog and cat too] and went for high ground for a couple of hours. Back home now but its raining hard again.
The water almost got in the house last round but don't know if we will be that lucky next round.
Boys all I can say until you live through flooding you just don't know how helpless you feel. We started out trying to save stuff then I realized stuff just didn't matter verses family safety.
The ole 4-door SCrew did a awesome job, luv that 4WD easy button

Up to about 14.3 inches here. .5 came down in less then 10 min. Both creeks are started to flood again, however, it's slacked off a little bit. If it can just hold here, the creek won't get up to where it was last time. I just don't know though. It's supposed to rain til about 6 or 7 tonight last I heard.
