2012 Flood

The photo slide show can be enlarged by clicking on the image and expanding the view from the You Tube website. Following a heavy snow-storm, something known as "The Pineapple Express" showed up causing heavy flooding in our area. Our property is home to two creeks. One is an un-named feeder creek that follows our driveway and dumps into Starr Creek that runs the back (north) side of our property. Although our property is in the flood zone, our house is not but as a precaution, it has been built up alittle and has a bottom flow thru in case of high waters. Luckily it did not get high enough this time!
