The flood

Jeff took some pics of the flood here in Bartlesville. This is a major road in town Adams off of Silverlake Dr. Lowes is right behind them, the parking lot was totally flooded too.
















This is a picture of the OWU baseball field. I am not certain how high the back fence is but you can see that it is OVER however high it is. The soccer fields for them are directly behind the field and you can see much of that either.

This one you will probably have to click it to make it big to see, but if you look in the water you can see the top of a 7 foot soccer goal post....that is an extremely low lying area, but still! It is just crazy stuff.

I talked to a friend of ours today and they are flooded IN their home. The water isn't inside, but they can't get out of their home either direction. Their neighbor has a boat and that is how he is getting to/from anywhere. He parked his car on the other side of all the places he knew would flood and he boats to his car everyday and boats back to the house after work. CRAZY! I hope this all goes away soon. I am sure there is going to be MUCH MUCH damage but it is still so high they can't even tell what/how much.
