FLOOD!!!!!!

And it poured, and poured, and poured!!!! The banks of the salt creek overflowed and we were stuck in our complex but before it got too bad we went to the hotel to stay. Driving through water that reached the tops of the wheel wells on the cars. some cars didn't heed the blockades that were put up and they got literally washed away. we finally came home on tuesday and after helping to clean up all the dirt and sandbags we are finally back to normal.


this was cypress st
this was Elk Grove Blvd and Rev Morrisonthe calm after the storm......
