Flooding

Well after all that snow, the weather warmed up and it all melted pretty fast. On top of that, we got 3 days of rain in a row and now we have flooding. All of these pics I stole from the Bellingham Heralds website. It was way worse the more south towards Seattle you went. I couldn't believe how fast the water rose and fell again. I didn't have time to get any pics myself. We were high and dry, but not the city of Ferndale as this first pic shows.

Landslide on Mt Baker Highway. I have to recycle this area on Tuesday- don't think this guy is going to be picked up.

On Friday, I brought my camera with me to get some pics, but the water had gone down on all of the city streets. I did manage to shoot this video on the Guide. I am going to start putting videos on YouTube, so they don't chew up my free blogspot memory. You can double click on the video and it will play it in YouTube.com. This way it is a little bigger and clearer. I had to reduce the size on my blog because there isn't enough room with my guestbook on the side.
