Purple Rain and Out of Control Water.....for Friday Fences

 
 
 
This is what happens when large amounts of rain falls,
 in a very short period of time.
Luckily, the local Ace Hardware Store only lost a fence,
 to the strong waters 
 
It has been a week of heavy rains here in my part of Texas.
 Monday alone, the rain gauge indicated 13 inches of rain.
 
 
Ground saturated,
 my own property saw swift moving waters,
leaving behind debris caught in the fence.

    1. I'm so glad I worked on a retaining wall near the house...it made all the difference.

  2. People always say I should be use to rain since I lived in Seattle, but here in the South, the rain comes down so hard. We never had that in the Northwest. Glad you have that retaining wall! XOXO

  3. So thankful you didn't have severe flood damage. What I saw on the news was so devastating. Enjoyed seeing the fence shots.

  4. I live in Fort Worth, TX and trust me we have had our share of flooding. I did not receive as much as I have in the past. Had drain system put in to help. However, Houston is i terrible condition.
