Ooooh... water

Feb 17, 2009 13:22

I think I've seen the sun a couple of times today, but it wasn't visible on my drive in this morning. That might have been due to getting to work before sunrise. I experienced flooded roads this morning, something I haven't experienced for probably close to 6 or 7 years, which was the first year we were in our last rental. I remember trying to get our of our neighborhood was incredibly difficult due to the flooded roads... talking about a foot of water or so. To those of us who don't deal with it on a regular basis, it adds a bit more fun to the commute... especially when one splashes up beside you. I know I "bottomed out" a couple of times driving through water this morning, but it was drivable. Going home will be interesting, though.

Tomorrow the Tour de California people come through our neck of the woods. They've had signs up about the upcoming road closures. They'll be by between noon and 2pm, so it's not going to affect me. I'm glad for their sakes that they're not going over Mt Hamilton this year... it's got more snow that it's seen in a while. In the meantime, we have more of the wet stuff, and it's supposed to last for a while. No complaints here. I'm hoping that it'll relieve some of the drought conditions we've experienced.
