Build an Ark

I'm still waiting for Dr. Hoerr, Zalena did retain her placenta and it must be cleaned out. I offered to drive her in this morning but the receptionist said he would come to me as he was already going to be on this side of the river. After driving the router machine down to Meister's I headed down to TSC for 15 bags of bedding and was shocked at the flooding all over Peoria. Andrew took the picture below looking over at Pottstown.

Above is the bridge going over Kickapoo Creek on Farmington Road. The picture below is looking at the Peoria Speedway.
David's school was called off because of flooding, above is a picture of the town of Streator:
Mark's pond is going over the dam in 3 or 4 places:

Below is the water going over a low spot on the lake dam:
the picture below was taken from the entrance at Wildlife Prairie Park. You are looking at the 4 way stop at Taylor road and Route 8 in Edwards.  

It is still raining on and off sometimes coming down hard sometimes just a sprinkle. The golf cart was taken over to the retainage lake during a lull but by the time I got there the rain started again in earnest so no pictures.
