I'm only happy when it rains...

OK, not really...and if you heard my story about the bike ride, you'd know that I DEFINITELY prefer sun!

It POURED while we were in the church meeting today, flooding most of the intersections in my neighborhood. (It took a while for me to get home because so many of the streets were flooded...and I live less than a mile away from the church building!)

Here are a few photos of one of the flooded intersections near my house:


According to one of the neighbors, the water in this flooded spot was knee deep!


Out for a stroll? Just kidding. This guy was nice enough to try to find the sewer drains and unclog them...to attempt to get the draining process started! Of course, by this point, everyone who saw me shooting these photos thought I worked for a newspaper... I DON'T!!! At least not anymore... I guess that's what happens when you ONLY have SLR cameras and their huge, accompanying bags. I think I need a smaller camera...


Is that a crosswalk, or are those lap lanes?


Once upon a sewer drain...

I'm just glad I wasn't out biking in that rain this time! I decided to stay in for the day. The sky continued to look ominous, so I thought a rest day sounded like a wonderful idea! Back to working out tomorrow...

Wow. I like rain when I'm inside, but not when it's flooding or when I'm outside. Did it clear up yet, or is it still all wet?
