He forgot that there was a grate covering the drain.  Not to mention that a toddler may fit but a not an adult.   Two hours when he looked out he noticed that the water was overflowing again.  Again he went out and did the same thing.   The small ravine is not on my property, but the neighbors who. yard backs onto it.  They throw all kinds of leaves, tires, beer cans and who knows what else.   I guess the boro is responsible but how in the world could you get them to come tonight,.   It is easier to do it oneself than wait to be flooded. 

This is the worst rainfall and flood since they have been keeping records.  They Want "W" to declair it a federal disaster area.  If he doesnt a lot of people will remember that come November..............

Another thing, why does the electricity go out but not the phone line.   I am connected because the ISP is dial up.   If it were on the broadband I guess it would be out too.   I am glad it is not too cold or to hot.

Maybe time for a glass of wine.
