The picture tonight is one I took of the pool at the condo in Gatlinburg. It was a great pool, and it was one of 3 on the property. This one was right below our building, so it was my favorite. We woke up to a growing pool in our basement this morning, so I was reminded of this.
It had rained most of the weekend, so we were looking forward to some sunshine. We got the sunshine today, but over the night we got over 6 inches of rain in Hobart! That caused flooding all over town and many people were stranded in their homes because many roads round town were impassable. We were fine and the water in the basement wasn't a big deal. We have a shop vac down there ready for times like this. If it rains more it will get nasty, but so far, so good. It's something we can handle. It's been interesting because all the Oklahoma City news teams were here and had our flooding on all the news channels. So, if you saw all the news coverage, don't worry about us; we're fine. We even got to lay out and collect some Vitamin D for the first time in several days. We thank God for the rain; the timing is great for the farmers. We also thank Him for stopping it before it got too bad; it was bad enough, but we can handle this much. If He sends more, He's going to have to send another ark.
The little work we did in the basement this morning just about broke my back, but it got so better with some time on the Power plate and a nap. I thank God for a body that heals!
