Just keeps getting better

The snow is almost melted, but the rains came.....and came......and Western Washington is flooding again, just like the severe flood just over a year ago. I-5 is closed just south of us for 20 miles. They think it will be closed through the weekend. Fun part for us.......no food deliveries for the restaurant. Hmm...........
This is actually a picture from last year's flood of I-5. I'm sure there will be new ones available soon. We count our blessings though. Our house is fine, and the restaurant itself is not flooded. Some of our friends weren't quite so lucky. Many of the towns around us are on "Boil Water" orders. I'm sure the church will be organizing groups to volunteer to help again. The church is amazing about that. God Bless those families losing so much during this time.
The video below is one of the parks we like to go to (the salmon spawning one I posted earlier). This is normally a nice little waterfall. Today, CRAZY!! All the walkways around the falls are getting covered in water.
