Spring Flood Photos

This Spring the water went so far over the road we were trapped for days. Flooding is a possiblity yearly. But seems to be on a cycle every 10 years for major flooding that causes road washout and high water coverage over the road.

The last time this happen was the Spring 1998 just a few weeks after the Ice Storm of 98. During the last flood we were trapped for 5 days, this time it was 4 days.
