A River Runs Through It

Our town of Pryor, is basically one big flood plane. Any excessive amounts of rain, end up in Pryor x 10. So 3-6 inches will cover acres of fields, and turn them into lakes. All the water from the Higher lying towns and areas around us, accumulate here.







On Friday, our work was flooded, and they let everyone go early.
But where were we to go?
All the major highways out of Pryor were all flooded.
All the minor streets in Pryor were flooded.
We were basically made to stay at home and stay out of the way of the rescuers.
We wouldn't want to make extra work for them afterall.
I was actually a little afraid in a couple of areas in my TRUCK...With huge tires and a lift. There were little cars in ditches everywhere, and submerged.
Sometimes it pays to have a big Ass truck.
