Default please, no more rain!

the water is getting pretty high around here, and as soon as the merrimack floods it will get much higher. i was planning to work on the car this week but those plans are shot. at least its not as bad as last year, the water was about 2-3 feet higher than it is in these pics. unfortunately the whole week is supposed to be rain.
