This is what our dock looks like now.  It goes out at least 5 feet past the bow of the boat.  The boat has floated itself (with out the plug) and is now tied off as best as possible.

This is the best picture that I could find that showed a before the rain.

There's the boat sitting on the wharf and that's Chris' step father there with the fish in case you were wondering.

I can't wait until the water is back where it's supposed to be.

I hope it doesn't get too close to the dwelling.  You still don't have all the leaves on the trees up there.  Things are growing here and need to be cut back.

They are trying to chase the neighbor out of his home.  Mom and Dad live on a hill so the most it can do is get into the basement and flood out the 15 or so tractors that are in there.  The leaves are slowly poking their heads out.

Well numbers are starting to come from the higher ups.  About 8 inches of rain.  To top that all off they are forecasting heavy winds for tonight and signifcant rain amount for over night tomorrow.  Do any of you guys need any rain.  Be glad to forward a few clouds on to you.

I have been getting a good amount, but it was dry before.  I could use a little more, but first I must mow the yard.  I need some more grass to pop that I planted.  I hope the tractors aren't harmed.

Wow, Hell froze over. Sent it baby.

If this much rain (under another rain warning 2-5 inches more for today & tonight) is what happens when hell freezes over, don't you think that it's time to formulate a way to unfreeze the place?

Some people may think that hell needs a good layer of ice to keep all the nasties in - but when was the vote that hell was in, around or under Nova Scotia?

PS - Just got to work and the neighbor called and they are moving out of their house temporairily.  The water has it totally surrounded and has about 1 foot to go before it hits the main part of their house.  An all out moving party has been scheduled for everybody that can help.  Stupid me - I left my boots at home.

I am sorry to hear about all this.  May God be with you all during this time. 

Sherri, lets just hope that dams don't rupture.

Keep us updated.
