The Rivers of Rain!

Also at the end of July we had amazing rain! I mean coastal rains. Buckets and Buckets of rain. Shane said it was just like Alabama rain. I compare it to the time I was in Washington D.C. with Kathyness and Cody and we were in our wedding wear and soon were wading in water up to our knees in the gutters of the Mall. Anyway, it was serious rain. Our windows and door jams were all just running with water. We had towels out, bowls and buckets catching the floods. We had to take pictures off the walls so they wouldn't get ruined (or washed off.) Shane took care of the downstairs which tends to get damp, even in less torrential water events. The water washed away parts of the 'lawn.' The photos I have don't give it justice, but here is what the water rush looked like:
