Icebergs and Flooding

We woke up the other day to find that our frozen river had turned into an ice jam and flooding. How did we sleep through such an event? It seems that all the ice breaking up and bumping into each other would have been noisy. And now we have water up to the boathouse which until recently was a good 50 feet from the river. Crazy!


Luckily our house is up a huge hill from all this water so we will be safe when the river waters warm and the ice melts. Unfortunately, we don't know what the fate of the boathouse will be. I have a feeling that Demi and Gladys will be excited with all the river wood debris. 'So many sticks, so little time'. And now Elise can earn some more money helping us clean things up. Maybe a treasure chest or diamond necklace is under all that ice. Who knows?!
