The river behind us rose last week during the Irene Cane, that wasn't the problem. The problem happened when something burst upstream and Water St where we live became literally WATER St!!! The she decided seeking higher ground was a good idea. She took the important stuff:passport, laptop, my meds, my food, my treats and ME!!! I had to plow thru water almost up to my neck (okay that probably isn't very high, but I am pretty short). My she said I looked just like a tug boat! And there were two sumps pumps running and they are loud. I walked right on by them, cause my she said I had to. I was such a good girl.
When my she first got me I hated rain, damp, wet, water and sump pumps. That day, I just went on thru. We never did find higher ground though, there were too many roads closed, too many wires down, and we wound up back were we started! The water got to within four feet of our door and then went down...whew. Plowing trhu water is one thing, but swimming? Eek!
Today it was drizzling out and what did I do? Plunked myself right down and sat in the rain!!!!!
