How close is that water to your house I hate to see any one get flooded

Tell the folks down river from ya to open the damn dam and let some water through

FinsnFur · October 02, 2010, 09:45:57 PM

It'll never get to me Bill. I'm on a hill, and a long way up from water level elevation.
Plus I drove for about 10 minutes to get these pics

This is our core of engineers at work. They open the gates they want, when they want.

Glad it won't get to you Jim!... Yeah they're blaming the Corps of engineers here for that bad flood a while back... took out the Bass Pro Shops...

They opened back up 2 weeks ago and I just went there for my 1st time today.

If you give that water the same directions as you gave Art then it just may go up the hill by accident

FinsnFur · October 03, 2010, 12:18:40 AM

Your still all bent about that?
I'm pretty sure there was no problem with the directions I was giving. I'm thinking you just had a hard time comprehending things.
And rightfully so, when the farthest you've ever traveled outside of the trip to Kentucky is one row at a time and measured in sprayer widths

Hang in there man, we'll get ya honed in.

Is all that flooding affecting your drive to work Jim? Around here when we had those bad floods there was folks driving an hour for a 20 minute drive to work.

alscalls · October 03, 2010, 06:37:11 AM

Dont worry Jimbo....... Yer a floater!!!

FinsnFur · October 03, 2010, 07:37:17 AM

No it's not bothering my drive to work for a couple reasons.
One, were shut down till this coming Friday.
Two, I drive the opposite direction of the river, to work.

possumal · October 03, 2010, 09:22:52 AM

Jimbo, Jambo, puddin' and pie, I hope the floods recede and keep your butt dry!

HaMeR · October 03, 2010, 09:51:17 AM

I'd say you're purdy lucky then.

Nope, If that elephant gets wet I'd have to take a picture of it from the state line bridge, cause it's directly under it. But I was over there too, getting gas since Iowa's is 12 to 15 cents cheaper, and it's close to the road but not quite up on it yet.

Well the up side is you got more places to fish!

Looks like WI is getting flushed.

QuoteLooks like WI is getting flushed.

Nope! James after the water receded the Wisconsin neighborhood yards and rivers look pretty much the same as before..

BTW Jim glad to hear it didn't get up on your hill and hope all that did get flooded recover quickly..

CCP.........

I was wondering about you the other day when I heard it was flooding your way. I crossed the Mississippi yesterday and she didn't look too swollen, but I only see her every few years so what do I know?
