that caused most of the excitement has been removed, leaving behind some fire wood for next winter, and a couple of small dents in the gutter. It could have been much worse.
I didn't get a picture of the flood in the parking lot yesterday, and luckily, by this morning it had subsided, so no flooded church nursery or office. Yet more rain is forecast for tomorrow and Saturday but hopefully not as much as we got yesterday.
I should add that the church is built on a wetland. It was built in 1888, before such things were regulated, but it means that drainage is always and forever a problem on parts of the property. The rectory, where I live, is on a hill above the church, so I don't have to worry about flooding. I know that what we've dealt with is so minor to what other parts of the state had a few weeks back, I really shouldn't complain.
But it really would be nice to have some warm, sunny weather for a while.

Glad you're ok!
You could have some of our warm, sunny weather. Really, I won't mind.
I'll take some of that warm weather too. Rain rain rain...enough already!
Good heavens! Looks like you had way too much of the wrong kind of excitement. I'm glad that everything turned out okay.
Wow! So glad you are OK, and here's to hoping the rain stays away for a while, despite the weather forcast!
I'm glad the tree didn't do more damage! Could we get some sun around here?
