yep , btdt ,,,.in sept 2006 we got 18 inches of rain in 30 hours in harrison co ind ,,.lost the caps off of serveral bridges here while i was county commissioner,. hydraulically removed and seperated the asphalt from the concrete base ,the pavement was no more than 5 yrs old in most cases ,,. a few slabs were found in the fields but most were washed down stream and were never seen again ,. previously in 1997 , a similar flood went thru the county seat at corydon where big indian and little indian join ,,. usually when one floods the other doesn't ,because of the drainage areas are very distant from one another by some 25 miles,,. this time they both hit corydon a hel'in at full bore at the same time , a fellow left a semi trailer parkt along the creek ,. it was a common practice , he and the cops went down to retrieve it in the dark but decided it was already tooo deep and dangerous ,. one of the guys had a rope on the tail end and had it tied off on his 4 wheel drive truck,. he tried to pull it backwards but the brakes were lokt , must a been a load in the trailer ,. when it floated it just about took the truck they cut therope and the trailer floated down to the south bridge where it promptly wedged under the bridge side ways ,, affectively plugging the current of little indian by some 2/3rds or more , and worrying us whether the bridge would hold ,.. in 5 minuts time all of downtown had 2 feet of water or more on the streets and in businesses and homes that were high and dry 5 minutes before , the county office building had 3 feet of water for 6 hours , the courthouse basement flooded 2 foot from the ceilings , but no water got in the 1st floor ,. yes thesec raging floods are horrible ,,.one o these days I would like to ask the man upstairs why some of us get none and then some get too much ,, but I figure if I get to have audience with the Almighty , he wouldhave far more questions about my behavior on this earth ,. so I will keep quiet, at therisk of being turned away asnot being good enuf to keep ,.
