RAIN

[Jeff H]

I got a call at 8:30 this morning from my cousin on the river where I keep my boat. We got 2-3" of rain overnight and the river came up 3 feet in less than 6 hours and the floating dock got wedged along the riverbank and the runways jack-knifed and twisted sideways. So I went up to straighten it out and there was a ton of debris stuck under the dock and forcing it against the riverbank. I ended up wading into the water with my workpants rolled up (took off my shoes and socks) and managed to straighten out the runways after lifting it up and walking barefoot through some poison ivy. I hope we can dry out for a little while!
