Flooding!

It may not seem to be a big deal to the dogs but when it's storming and the water is 2" up the side of the house and rising it's not good! Today is the second day of a storm front here in the foothills of the Sierras and we got a good mix of hail, rain, and lightning. None of it bothers Lance and Mickey, in fact they enjoy it, but flooding of our backyard has been an ongoing problem for years and right now it's getting pretty bad. We've put in drains and used "waddles" but sometimes it's just too much rain.
