I would have dug up as many as I could and saved them but hey..thats just me I guess.

sorry to hear you are losing the battle with MN

Don't mean to sound harsh but when buying a home you pretty much gotta go through a check list. Tornadoes? Nope. Hurricanes? Nope. Periodic floods? Yup. Hold up.

idiot lol

That is really unfortunate, but get out while you can mojo. Water can move heavy objects, no point in taking risks. Do you at least have somewhere to land while this works itself out?

not leaving...non of the neighbors are either...we are at a 70yr high now....just another challenge in life




mojo

I get it. In the face of diversity I tend to hunker down and ride it out as well. I am no stranger to floods, even in my own basement, and I have been caught and swept downstream a few times in spring runoff. Your situation sounds pretty severe, I really hope for you that it is over sooner than later.

there is no current here...just grassland to the north and the lake to the south...thanks for the thoughts!!

I'm so praying that you get spared somehow buddy. Is is in the house yet? Is there sliver of hope that you'll be ok for a day or two more?

I live in a mobile...house sits up high...the yard is my main concern....


mojo

Hoping for best for ya mojo.

I'm getting the impression that your house then will be ok but the property is at risk. Well if that's the case at least your home will be spared...that's gotta be a ray of hope. And one less worry for you.
Hopefully the property can stand this until it dries back. Sorry on the crop I guess...are they toast?

no standing water in the yard....yet...more rain due later today....grrr



mojo

Hang on mojo...hang on...we are all sending positive vibes your way today
maybe a giant meteor of sponge will plummet from space ...land in your lake....and suck it all up...

you could use some of the folks around this site..
theyre good at sucking up.......

the water is gone from my driveway for now...its down 2 inches...but more warm weather indicates it will rise again...still a dry yard...



mojo

Sounds like a win. It may be a small win, but anything that averts disaster is still a win. No doubt there is going to be a small mess to clean up after it is all over. I am going to uncross my legs now since they fell asleep, LOL, but I will keep my fingers crossed, and my eyes if I get stoned enough.
