Yay for Levees!

A break from the knitting life!

Yay for levees!

So, After a little scrounging around, I found some pictures of what the view looks like from work normally… and what it looks like now with the… um… extra water.
We hit the flood stage this morning, so I don’t know what we’re at now…

But the water isn’t supposed to crest until this weekend.
And ironically enough, we’re also under a hugely critical wildfire warning too apparently.

But, I digress…
Oh, and ignore the way that blogger likes to remove the right margin of all of my landscape photos. yay for blogger. NOT!

And today… though not exactly in the same spot – you can even see the water going around the bend at President’s Island! Note the building on Mud Island – and see where it is in both pictures!
