This was a particularly strong weather event and came near to flooding our apartment

Inside that cage enclosure was a very disgrunteled rooster. He is now on a section of high ground within our apartment immediate area. At least his feet were out of the water


The water continued to rise along with our concerns


Most of the area in this picture is the area where the other apartment cooked outdoors

The rooster is now saying, "Hey! My feet are getting wet again!"

The in/out road is now a creek, at least 12 inches running down it

This is the road we use to come into our apartment, and the other area is a drainage ditch... with 2 to 3 feet of water in it





The concerns are reaching the 'now what' level, 2-3 inches higher and we will have water in our apartment!




This is where things turned around. The water began to creep back down the entryway
