A little flooding in Helena

The first video is the results of 10 Mile Creek flooding about a mile away from us.  This is the last mile of my drive home - at least until the road block and detour.  The houses across the street from us are all built on the old stream bed that used to be (and is again currently) 10 Mile Creek.  They are waist deep in water and swimming in their basements.  The second video is walking down to the end of our road....



We put sand bags around our window wells last night.  I guess we'll be getting a free horseshoe pit when this is all said and done - assuming there is a place to put one!!  But, all is well here!  We're sitting pretty so far! 


This is the end o our road to the north of our house this morning.  Gunner is loving our beach-front property!
