Our Track, Behind the Dog Resort496 viewsThis is our track behind the dog resort (on the left) during the flood. The drains on the side of the track had become clogged. A bit of shovel work, and the drains were open.%950 %20, %2007

Our Little Dam5038 viewsThis is the first time I'd seen water actually go over the sides of the dam. Normally the water just goes through the lower portion in the middle. Fortunately our stream was able to take the water safely away from the house and garden.%950 %20, %2007

Colletts Green Road745 viewsThe undersized sewers are again not up to the task. The water bubbles up, and then flows from the sewers into the highway run-off system. So sewage is escaping and going down into the River Severn. We have complained about this for 15 or more years, but nobody does anything about it. We installed our own mini sewage treatment plant so we weren't dependent upon the main sewers.%950 %20, %2007
