Day #61 - 5 Feet High and Risin'

The aftermath of last night's rain storm had Carroll Creek
looking like the Monocacy River that it feeds...

Road to farm completely submerged by the same creek...
you can see how far underwater the posts are.

Normally, Israel Creek runs placidly along the trees in the background. Now it's covering the bottomland of a nearby farm. This particular creek is about 1/4 mile from our backyard and it's extremely disconcerting to watch it overflow its banks when we have heavy rains. Luckily, we're uphill!
