What a crazy night!
Left work at 7pm heading home in Flemington. Downpours and massive flooding everywhere. I wound up stopping on a high ground by 3 Bridges and spent the night in my car while water was closing in from all directions. I really thought I was a goner. The rain was non stop and the river kept rising and all i could hear was the roar of the river. I got no sleep and was ready to drive up a driveway to get to even higher ground. The next morning local's in this rural area realized I was there and brought me food and coffee. Very nice people. I made new friends and promised them fresh fish. Final the river dropped enough for me to cross a flooded road. All I can say is what and night and the man up stairs was looking over me for sure. I'm glad to now be safe and home. But it was a night I will never forget. I hope everyone is safe and home with their families.
