See Pictures Below:
We are experiencing high runoff from the Uinta Mountain Range and it is higher than I have ever seen it. Our sewer is flooded and is backing up into the house. What a mess!
Even to a flood, though, there is always a positive. This morning while driving to work, I saw a flooded field awash with little black water birds. They have long beaks and long legs and they were just having a grand time. They were swimming and diving and splashing like the river flooded just for their enjoyment.
While Mother Nature may be inconveniencing us, she is compensating with others of God's creations. Great Design, Great Plan.

Amen, Sherone! Way to spin it positively...it is a mess, though, it sounds. But, this too, shall pass!

Sherone, I am sorry to hear of your troubles. I can picture the little birds frolicking about and it is a beautiful picture. You are such an encouragement to be able to enjoy Gods goodness with us.

Sherone, that is so neat that you can see the good in this. I think that's how God plans it. I am so glad you got to see that. I'm sorry for all your trouble though. That has to be the most awful mess. But it can be fixed.

Here are pictures of the devastation in SW Wyoming....the photos were taken by my friend Carlos.
This is near our house
The road to our place is completely covered.
The bridge near our house that is danger of damage
