The Flood

 It rained A LOT in the early hours of Saturday morning. We've had such a dry summer and then it rained so much all at once that it actually flooded our back yard and went over the spillway at the end of our pond and into the park. It was very exciting. I had to go to school as a volunteer for the flu shot clinic, but I was quickly able to get out and explore a bit with the kids before I left. Later, Zac found a high water mark on our firepit another foot above this, so we actually slept through the worst of it. It went down pretty quickly and was normal level a couple of hours later.
