I am pretty sure I will not be able to drive to the cottage tomorrow.
Lake Gibson, the flood in the side yard above.
The houses just up river are a bit drier, built on fill. We hope to get there too.
I walked around to the back (not easy) and took a picture looking past the well head and out towards the river. I think it will come in the back door tomorrow for sure. The breezeway is on a slab and the carpet was already wet.
The city of Leclaire’s riverfront park is under water. I don’t think the riverboat Twilight is heading out on its trip to Dubuque soon.
