All last week as the rain was coming down, we kept an eye on our bench seated on the edge of the river. It didn't seem possible that the water would rise enough to reach the bench. By Thursday our dock was completely covered.
By Saturday morning, we could see the bench and the plan was to go get it after coffee. By the time Jason got down there, it looked like this.
Jason came back with his rescue plan. It, of course, involved his kayak. Thus began the great rescue of 2018.
It was even more fun because our family was there with us. The rescue wasn't the only fun we had that weekend, we also celebrated over dinner, got all muddy and had fun inside during the rain.
And we enjoyed the sunshine that came back out on Sunday.
And already the water's had almost receded back into the river!
