Today the flood water was down almost a foot from yesterday. No rain and a strong north wind helped. I finally got the nerve to escape my island home. Cabin fever was setting in pretty good. I was flush with toilet paper and Coke but needed to see the mainland.
Neighbor drove my truck out to show me how to do it. Much of the drive..I could see the yellow line in the middle of the road. I took a few pics through the front window. There's a pretty bad glare but you can still see the water.
After I did my chores on the mainland..I came back. Now it was my turn to do it on my own. I waited for someone to come up that I could follow in. Still a tad on the scared side. Finally a truck came up so I cranked up my truck to follow. That truck left me way back in his wake. When I caught up with him..he was turning around. I still had the deepest water to go through but now I was on my own. I did it and I earned a new feather.
The first 4 pics are the trip out and the last pic is of my wharf. I can now see it through the water. It's cold out today but the sun is out.
