Floods

March has had record rainfall....and when you say that about a month in Portland you are talking about a serious rain! There is also a lot of snow in the mountains and that combination means that the Willamette River is flooding.

This beach normally extends to the trees. Notice the trash can!
This looks like as swimming pool but is actually an area where weddings and concerts are held. Now it is a big duck pond!
The boat house is normally in the river. However the bridge is not!


Can you see the tree trunk that the water moved onto the bridge?
The path we usually take goes past the bench and on along the river. No exercising on that path today unless you want to swim.
Miss Jordana loves going on walks to investigate the flooding!

  1. Oh my! Is this the river that is by your home? Missing you! When might you come to SLC?

  2. Yes it is right down the hill from our house. George will be in SLC in about a week. I don't know when I'll be there....probably not until August.
