This is Finch, between Keele and Dufferin.

Repair bill is estimated at $5 Million.

Last Friday.


I spent all Friday afternoon/evening moving pails of water out of my office into the parkinglot. And then all Saturday and all Sunday using the Shop Vac to clean up the soggy carpet. Then I had to toss out all of the ceiling panels that had become waterlogged and had fallen into the office.

We had 3 feet of water in the loading dock, and some dumb kid in a Jeep making waves. I saw him the next day stalled with the hood up, changing plugs.

Yep...I thought it was going to kill my show (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/unsure.gif)

We only got a 2-3hr downpour. The ground is so dry here it just sucked it in like a sponge.

As a result of all the rain in the past few weeks my lawn is growing out of control. It rained Friday and Saturday, then I was at the Festival all day Sunday. Monday they sprayed my lawn, so I had to wait till yesterday to mow. I needed a combine! I had the deck set to high and in low gear to keep the blades from stalling. I was cutting 4" to 6" over the bulk of the lawn. It will need to be done again tomorrow. With the price of gas I'm considering selling my poodles and getting some goats.
