    roads are still closed around here. I consoled myself that at least it wasn't snow.
    today I got out and managed to take some pictures. I also bought myself some rubber boots

    this is my 'thinking spot' now underwater. the texture was added for fun.



    this is normally a small stream home to a small flock of ducks:

    further away from the lake I found this. Based on the dead trees I suspect it's a flood plain. Still I've never seen it like this:

    Yeah, it was quite a deluge on Friday. Didn't see that much flooding right here in Halifax but windy! Whew! People were losing shingles all over the place. Must have been pretty close to hurricane speed winds.

    Woah Bamib, - that looks like a swamp now! That's all from rain, not from melting snow?

    Besides: The picture with the texture I like - the treatment works well.
