This weekend we had some very heavy rain. While we were running around town, we passed over a bridge on K-10 and saw that the creek below had completely overflowed its banks. We decided to make a little detour and stop in at the Streamway Trails park near Northwood Trails, the neighborhood we used to live in, since the creek passes through there. We suspected it would be high, but what we saw was pretty amazing!
The kids had fun stomping around some of the flooded trails, so we spent about a half-hour there just looking around and playing. Katherine wanted to stay and play on the playground, but it was completely saturated so we decided to pass on that.
We also got some movies off Robin’s new jeejah, which functions as a pretty good speelycaptor. (OK, I’ll quit with the Anathem references…) I’ve uploaded them and linked them below.

These are amazing pictures and video for a such a tiny little phone. Unfortunately the lighter colors wash out so you can’t really see that there were actually rapids running north of the bridge. Plus, I have to say that my Pixi is offended at being called a jeejaw!
