Well, we have had major flooding in the area. One life lost. The small creeks and tributaries just couldn't handle the massive amounts of rain that has come down. I went to the woods yesterday to load up the Chebby wood getter and got sodered in the hay field coming out, and had to walk home, Loaded the wifey onto the 770 and went up to pull it out.

I got the water flowing thru the culvert, and then started dreging the creek and built a berm with the riprap.

These are pics. from yesterday and today Loren, the Acg.
