From Eden Photography photo blog (www.edenphotography.biz):
A lot of people have asked how the farm is doing with the flood, so I thought I’d share a few photos of the damage so far! We get flooded at least every spring, but this year is supposed to outdo the flood of ‘97- when we had to take a canoe back and forth to get from the house to our cars!
Here’s the view on Monday morning before we started sandbagging:
And here's the view from the house:
At first we didn’t think we’d be able to get any sandbags, so we started building a wall!
Then we got the poly out of the barn to cover the plywood:
And then the sandbags arrived:
And finally the sand:
Lots of friends from church came to help us out:
So we made food and hot chocolate for them:
PS: We have the canoe ready to go again!
This was this morning after all the snow:
And here’s a close up of the river which normally is down the hill from the barn:
Thanks for all the help and prayers from everyone- it’s amazing to see the whole city come out and help each other like this!
