IT COMES;

The first of these two images shows Max doing a “U” turn when he encounters the “high tide” across one of our trails. This is the inlet end of the pond and shows the North creek pouring Thursday night’s rain and snow melt under the bridge where ordinarily there is but a gentle flow of water.

and IT GOES—

Once the inlet streams overwhelm the capacity of the pond drain pipe the water level rises until it flows over the emergency spillway, which is shown in the second image, crossing the driveway. Assuming an average current flow this water should reach the Louisiana Delta and the Gulf of Mexico in approximately eight days.

Makes me want to launch a canoe.
