Yes, the difference between the lowest point in the yard and where the house starts is drastic. When I took that picture, if I would have stepped off the porch and walked toward the back of the yard, I would have been in water over my waist before reaching the fence.pErvin wrote:Whoah.Sean Hayden wrote:-the neighbor's yard from my porch, taken before leaving yesterday
Sounds like your house is a bit higher... lucky man.

We wore gators in cadets at school. Had to polish 'em a nice shiny black, or the sergeants would be brutal with their sarcastic remarks...

Re: Hurricane Harvey
We were issued with gators and instructed to keep them well polished too. After the third incident involving damaged brushes and missing fingers the CO ordered a recall. With the efficiency the military is so well known for, the gators were indeed withdrawn from use and replaced by gaiters one year and eight more incidents later.JimC wrote:We wore gators in cadets at school.
