More Flooding




It takes a long time for this much water to drain off.

The farmers apparently moved their livestock onto the flood mounds. I wanted pictures but, of course, if you could get to where the flood mounds were in a car, you would just truck the livestock out to high ground.

I wanted to see someone waterski on the flooded fields. Only later did I realize that waterskiing over submerged barbed wire fences might not be a high safety activity. There was a speedboat following the river, though, probably with a TV crew in it.
