I had been wondering what I was going to write about for farming Friday. I had nothing prepared. Nature kicked in and helped with a story.

The carport.
The carport 1 hour later. It did get higher but I was far too busy by then
Where it flows after the carport.

Our Road
Driveway
A few of the many trenches we had to dig to divert water from the house. This first trench is about 50cm deep. It took some digging to the water rushing over the pavers and into the laundry and sewing room.
The garage floor level is lower than the level of this water. There was about an inch of water in the garage.
4WD 1 to bring us sand bags
4WD 2 to save 4WD 1?
4WD 2 being saved by 4WD's 3 and 4
The mess 4WD 2 left
4WD's 2, 3 and 4 set up to rescue 4WD 1
4WD 1 half way out
The sandbags now doing not much as the rain stopped before they got there. Much more rain is predicted so I am sure they will be needed overnight.
Wow that is a lot of four wheeled drives!
ReplyDeleteCan you get out the driveway?
We have a giant hole where we got the Subi stuck last year, so I have planted a tree in it. A Powlonia - chinese tropical style tree so it should appreaciate growing in a hollow filled with water.
