Tommoro. When there MIGHT Be a little bit of sunshine, Ill take some photos for you guys.

I hope it goes away.

Today i was with my Bro, and we were crossing a little bridge, The water was up on the Bonnet.

A Hilux Ute, Lets just say we didnt make it far. . .

The back wheels were lifting up off the ground, i hopped out through the Cab and onto the tray in a small attempt too put some weight on the back end

We had to get towed by a 4wd that just powered through it from behind.

We knew it was going too be flooded, so we put some Pipe from the Muffler too top of tray as a Snorkel to stop water going back up into the motor.

Wish i had my phone with me. . . The water was literally over his bonnet

We got half way, then couldn make the rest.

If we go that way tomorro, Ill take photos for you all

Next time tho, im taking the 4 Wheel Drive,

Stuff the Hilux.

My yard gets about 4 cm water on it and it just stays at that level, so its perfect for "redneck wakeboarding"

Involves a sheep long rope, going up too the road (so the car can get grip n not tear up grass), then getting pulled on a body board over the grass

Sounds Gay, But Its Good Fun

Herme's, You would love it

My life is almost pratically boring

I totally agree, the pond near my house has gone down at least a foot this summer. We've had barely any rain at all.

You wanna fill up a bucket and send it over so I can pour it on our lawn?

Everythings so dry here...And watering restrictions are just getting worse, and worse. I can't even remember the last time we had rain, had to be months ago

oscaryu1 · 08-24-2007, 05:34 PM

It used to rain almost everyday in Houston but its getting Dry here too ... Just noticed.

hermeslyre · 08-24-2007, 10:55 PM

Ooh, it does sound nice. I've always loved the rain. It use to rain all the time here in portland, now it barely rain at all. Being so close to Seattle doesn't help!

lol, I've seen people wakeboarding out here when it floods, it looks like a ton of fun
