Here are a few pictures from the recent flood. Luckily, again, the Nooksack River didn't get as high as some of the rivers south of here. It crested a little over 2' above flood stage at Cedarville, which is about 3-4' below our floor elevation.
Here is our backyard. the broken trees are a product of the windstorm we had a couple weeks ago.
Here is the same spot after the water receded
Here is the same spot as above after the water receded. Luckily the water doesn't move very swiftly so it didn't carry away the wheelbarrow the boys left in the yard.
There's the view out the back window.
Two years ago when it flooded in November we ended up with 3 Salmon trapped in the back yard. The boys asked if they could take their BB guns out and look for fish again this year. It is a little late in the year for Salmon though so they didn't have any luck.
