So this first picture is from Tori; she's on the corner of Dee-Mack Road and Hild Road (obviously), looking north at a very flooded Mackinaw River. This was Thursday morning before she went to work, because when we tried to do this Thursday evening, we couldn't get this far: Dee-Mack Road was closed by then.
Our evening drive started out through Mackinaw hoping to see the aforementioned scene; like I said, we got stopped by barricades. Fine by me. That water was too close to the bridge for my comfort. Well, so we wandered around the township and saw every Mackinaw River bridge we could possibly find. Some of these px are pretty repetitive, with the same repetitive message - flood - but Josh wanted me to use them all. So I did. But I don't know where they all are.
So this one I recognize. We're heading south on the White Oak Grove Road, looking west, and just starting to see water trickle down the levee. In the distance is the Vance farm at the bottom of the hill on Sauder(?) Road.
Crossing the river, still heading south. I didn't love this part of the Drive.
We turned around in White Oak Grove; this is heading back north.
This is just north of the river at White Oak Grove. Seeing water flow over the levee gave me kind of a funny feeling. I don't like floods.
Not sure where this was.
Looking south down Schmidgall Road just south of Townline (I think).
Crossing the bridge on Feather Road maybe?
This was at the Locust Street bridge. Dad and kids walked out onto the bridge but it was cool out and I was happily warm and safe in my big white van :)
So thus (hopefully) ends the spring flooding of 2019. So far this week we haven't had much of the predicted rain, and I think we're all hoping it stays that way!
