So, it rained. And rained. And rained even more. Two full days of rain in Middle Tennessee. Record rainfall totals....we're hearing reports of 18 inches of rain in two days. Many parts of Nashville are flooded. Riverfront Park up to 2nd Avenue downtown...underwater. Opryland Hotel...underwater. Opry Mills....underwater. The Opryhouse is underwater, too. Interstates are shut down and many roads are still closed. My little family and I are fine...others have not been so lucky. The local TV channels have been reporting non-stop since Saturday morning. No regular programming has been on....just news and weather. According to the TVA website, all MidState dams will be releasing water until midnight tonight...so guess what? More water. Anyway, the sun is out, the schools are closed and the weather is expected to be warm and sunny....until the weekend when more rain is expected. We've been asked to conserve water....don't use it unless it is necessary....don't flush, don't shower unless you have too. I'm pretty sure I need a shower everyday....but we'll see. Y'all stay safe and dry!
Today I am thankful for: a driveway that goes uphill and Lysol & ginger ale for Wyatt.
