I know...there is a good snapshot in Crossroads at the Spring. The one with all the wood and barrells stacked up. I think Springfield Magazine a few years back did a series on it (Possibly by my old science teacher Hayward Barnett) and some of the attempts to keep the creek open. I think some beautification group wanted to plant gardens along it.Willard wrote:Flooding was the whole reason for covering the creek. There are pictuers from the 1920's of the creek flooding.

Gothstone and I were thinking the same thing about our favorite drain. So we decided to check it out. The tunnels were about half full with water rushing out at almost 40mph. We decided maybe we could come back during a smaller rain.

I don't ever wanna hear you whining about working all the time, Hiccup! You're in like every post on here so obviously you get out a little bit! Sheesh! And here I was feeling sorry for you like you lived at work, came home to 18 cats and slept on the floor for a few hours then you were back to work. Whatever! You know what I did today? I made cornbread. That's it! Besides changed diapers and swept the floor. There's no playing in the rain trips for me, sister! Let me tell you another thing...*voice trails off*

You mean other people do that, too?

I like the sleeping on the floor bit, but you should try to increase the population density of the cats until it's like sleeping on a warn, furry water bed... with claws!

Probably because of those energy drinks.
I sleep too much now, used to I didn't sleep hardly at all and now I'm cranky if I don't get my nap in the afternoons. It's weird, I'm weird.
