Our area got anywhere between 3.5" - 6" or rain last night and it's supposed to rain all day and night. We are WELL over 30" higher than the normal for the year!!!

I'm heading home in a little to start construction on my large boat!!!


The two LARGE lakes here are at record levels and they are getting ready to open the flood gates. I feel sorry for anybody that lives along the White River, Arkansas River, or Mississippi River...

I've been in Dallas the last few days and we've been getting some rain here too. Last night some major storms blew through and knocked everything down. I like this weather since I don't see in much in Phx area.

You just had to go there...Sad

The water had gone down and I went down this weekend and refaced the WHOLE track. It was looking good and I got on the bike to ride. 5 laps later I came up a little short and broke my chain and front sprocket!!!

I took a bunch of pictures of where the water was...it was around 30-40 feet deep where my track is...I'm sure it's back there again!!!!

Here are some pictures from last weekend...and from last night. The track is back under 20 - 30 feet of water again... Sad


My custom hauler...


This water was 25-35 feet deep...and probably is again!!!


After 20-30 feet of water...

You'll probably want to grease those wheel bearings. Smile

Geez that sux Huck - you need to build an Ark. Its been pretty decent here - all sunshine, lows of 50 and high of 74 all weekend.


Could use some of that runoff to fill our pond
