Default Gahhh!!!

Im sick of the damn rain already!!! its been raining here for the past week and it annoying..

On Sat..everything flooded....i was in the rain that day too....there is 1 intersection that floods that leads to my house...it the only way to get home...so i had to drive thru it....i dunno how deep it was but it was deep...about a foot probably...

sunday..same crap...flooding everywhere....cept this time the pony stayed in the stable and i took the truck

monday..same

tuesday...rain came in 15 mins spurts...but extremely heavy....like u can only do 15 on the highway heavy...

wedensday....finnally!! clear skys..mid 80's...but now there is a freaking river in my back yard from the overspills of the neighboring development...its about a foot deep..

thursday morining at 3:18 am....HUGE *** THUNDER...POWER FLICKERING!!!

WHEN WILL IT STOP!!!??

AND 1 MORE THING...I SWEAR..IF IT RAINS ON THE 4TH...IM GONNA HURT SOMETHING...

i guess the stang got a good washing on saturday...huh :bash: :bash:

my old house is about 1/8th of a mile to the left from the building in the distance, water is about 2 feet high..there a river behind it..7 feet over what it normally is:


the town that i go thru to get to my current house...the intersection that i went thru w/ 1.5 feet of water (had no choice) is about 1 mile from this pic...water was flowing from behind a building like there was a river over flow...cept there is no river..just train tracks about 8 feet higher than the road:

Nope, I am close to ya man (CT) and it has been raining non-stop basically, yesterday was nice... Luckily it is VERY 'hilly' where I live, so the rain tends to flow down and collect... somewhere. Usually near the mall, which is also sinking at a dramatic rate... given it was built on a swamp. Way to go.

I miss that type of rain and lightning storms...I use to live in Texas and got that all the time, but don't get any type of rain like that in Idaho...
