Stranded

We were supposed to be home yesterday. We had a great drive, were enjoying the scenery... and then our neighbor called.

"Don't bother coming home - you can't get here anyway," he said.

What???

Seattle experienced a lot of rain in the 6 days we were gone. A LOT of rain. Eight inches of rain. And it all ended up in our little valley. And this isn't really a good time to find out that ALL roads that lead to our little community either cross over or run along that little valley with its sweet little river.

Today that is a "raging river," I'm afraid. And the bridges and roads are under water and we are definitely and decidedly NOT at home.

We're stranded.
