Surviving the Storm

[Mr70]

Friends of mine living in Franklin Park were asked to evacuate.Anyone living closer to the city along the Chicago river is in trouble as it crested overnight.They had to open the locks to Lake Michigan,which lowered it 10".Viaducts are flooded all over the place.
Some Football games will be quite amusing today.Just hold onto the ball and you win.
We broke that August,1987 24 hour record rainfall of 6.49".They say we got 6.69" so far and now reminants of Hurricane Ike are coming down ontop of that.
On a happier note,my dog has got new life in her & simply loves this weather. She is jumping in every retention pond she can find and wants to play with the geese.
Wanna go for a walk?....
