More rain

Hmmmmm, have I mentioned rain lately? It's raining again. The ground is so saturated here that houses are falling into the rivers and lakes, one lake has disappeared as it washed away a road and flowed into the river. Here in our little corner of the world, our lake is getting higher and higher. It's as high as I've ever seen it since we've lived here, which is only 8 years but, it's pretty wet. Our yard has not been dry since last fall and has had standing water continuously, except for a couple of days, since the snow melted. The basement has water in it for the first time and the roof is leaking. My parents would love to have some of this water. They have been very dry and hot. The farmers aren't going to be able to bale the hay again this year if we don't get a break from the rain.
