Atlanta Flood

Well, we were lucky during the flood to have no damage, thanks to the fact that we live on a giant hill. We have several friends/families near us who weren't so lucky. We hate that so much damage was done to the homes near us. The road to get to our house is closed... and thankfully the road to get to our house the opposite way has a new bridge that was compelted about 6 months ago- the old bridge, which is still there under the new one, was completely under water. Thankfully Ernest had the day off, but he had to go to the small drug store near by to get Avery's Reflux medicine refilled... a normally 15 min drive took well over an hour one way.
Here are some pictures of our front yard. Ernest had to do MILITARY flood response work at his own home! To avoid our transformer being washed away, he had to go out and move rock bags from the sewer... against the rules we know- but we were not going to loose our house transformer! Anyways, notice his military rain coat :) My soldier!




These were pictures I saw on Facebook that were taken of a golfcourse/neighborhood down the street from our neighborhood.
