2010 Flood

This past weekend it rained and it rained and it rained some more! Needless to say things got a little flooded here. Luckily our house is far enough up on a hill that the river has never reached it, but yesterday was the closest I have ever see it.

This is the bridge in White Mills. A few hours before this the bridge was completely covered with water...I wish I had gotten there earlier to take some pictures.

For those of you that are not local, the white building you see is the old hotel. Jason and I got married on the front porch steps.

There were a ton of people there to see the river making it impossible to get a picture of just the bridge and the water!

This is a little shed right before you cross the bridge, you can tell how much the water had already dropped.

This is the road to our house...we have had to take the long way around.

This is the river beside our house...this was taken off my back deck.

This was also taken off my back deck.

WOW...I had seen pics of the bridge, didn't realize your river would flood that much. Brayden asked about the creek :)

I'm glad you posted these pictures; I had not seen how bad the camp is flooded. And I can't believe how much the river is up behind your house. That's probably a little bit scary being it's so close to your house.
