Its days like these when I’m glad I don’t have my dream house by a river or lake. It hasn’t stopped raining here in Atlanta in what seems like ages. (There has been a reprieve today but we’ll see if it lasts.) We are pretty lucky though. Our house is dry and as far as I know, our friends and co-workers are unaffected as well…
I found some crazy pictures and videos you should check out…
Video: Flooding down the street
The first place they are taking video of is on my way to work. Normally this creek barely trickles. It is amazing if it flows at all. Wow. The second location is on our way to church. It’s so weird seeing everything underwater that normally is beautiful grass and houses.
Who would’ve thought that the highways would flood?
I guess it was good that I had to work really, really late last night. Driving home I had to take an alternative route because of the flooding and I encountered the creepiest thing. All the power was out on Howell Mill. Super markets, gas stations, traffic lights…everything was pitch black. A car had pulled up with its headlights on to the front window of Fellini’s so the people inside wouldn’t be in complete darkness. It was as if we lived in the middle of nowhere.
What a strange few days in Atlanta. I have a feeling the clean up is going to take awhile…
