The creek in our backyard has been a rushing river with all this rain! I gets flowing like crazy during a storm (don't worry we don't let the kids out of our sight!) and then goes back down to a babbling brook (ie much more safe) as soon as it stops raining. Sunday was CRAZY - these pictures were at about noon when it crested, then it broke over the walls in the Redwood Grove and flooded the paths! We've seen it a little higher in the past but this was pretty high and the first time in this house we've had water in the creek. Exciting stuff around here! :)
