After the Floods

I always tuck the camera in the car when I go to church, because I drive across country 

and come back the same way. 

I see lots of interesting things. 

Last week, we had a lot of rain, and I showed you a closed road, there were several. 

Here are our Stranger Creek bluffs on 3/20. 

Yesterday.  As our County Emergency Manager says, you would not want to be caught in one of the 

caves under the bluff. 

The creek was actually out of its' banks on the other side of the bridge. 

I am bothered by vertigo, and it's hard for me to stand at the edge of the bridge to take pictures. 

I went up the road... to see this. 

After the floods, the fields are strewn with dead animals and fish. 

There were more birds coming down here... 

And on the other side of the road, farther out in the field... 

They were very clearly feasting on animals drowned by the flooding. 

There were more coming down there, too, as I left. 

However, it wasn't all gloom and doom... 

Because some of my favorite flowers are starting to line the roadways. 

I have five new ones planted here last fall, and
I am eager to see them open!  They have come up 

very well this spring, so it won't be long!
