The grinch brought me a flooded basement. If I had some trout to put in it I'd invite everyone over to go fishing.

Hey copo I've got a 4 inch wood bore we can drill holes thru your floor and it'll be like ice fishing from a good shanty but could you stock it with perch instead?

Bailey - did you get a lot of water in the swamps? I could have fried eggs on my sump pump over the weekend. I had a drain hole in the basement wall that was going into the sump pump hole. I could have raised trout in the rapids.

Swamps came up quite a bit some water did cross roads partially nearby but not bad. I actually took about 2 inches of water in basement and I'm on higher ground. Not often does that happen at most sump hole gets an inch or 2 in it. The water table is high here also well is 28 ft deep and water is 18 ft down well case usually bet its up now even more. We did get some tree damage and power outages in the area. Luckily fixed fast here.

Yea for sure, sort of miss being out there but its nice being on the inside also. I was always good during day light hrs. but got a bit loggy around 2 am. after a day or two. The novlety wears off fast. BUT, the pay checks were nice the next week! One ice storm we were in O.P. Eagle hts. a guy pulls up next to me in his Lincoln puts down his power window & says " when is my power coming back on?" Now me being out there for 3 days stright in knee deep snow with 3" ice crusted on top to break through with every step just looked at him & said " MR. I have been out here for 3 days I don't give a sh!t if you ever get power !" He put up his window & drove off.
