Since I have lived at my present location, there have been 3 floods where the water got knee deep between the house and the garage. The last two were 3 days apart. First time the driveway only went about 200 ft.I had it all back when the second one hit 2 days later and it went to the Chesapeake bay. The previous flood was 1915. Since then the state in their infinite wisdom have turned the road in front of my house into a dam 4 to 5 ft. higher than it was. No one is allowed to clean out the streams because fish are more important than people. So now when the rain comes, all that water goes down main street instead of crossing the road and going about 1/2 mile across the field and dumping in the river. People were canoeing on main street. Now the state has plans to replace the 12" culverts under the driveways on the east side of the road. Not a chance they will put in a culvert that will carry a wave of water coming across the car dealer's lot 10" deep. What's the chance the "Engineers" will get it right this time. ZERO. I can't afford flood insurance or a house on the side of a mountain so I'll have to put up with it for the rest of my life which shouldn't be to long.

Today's Featured Article - Recollections of a John Deere GP - by Charlie Cook. I grew up on my dad's 280 acre general farm in Western Michigan. Dad's only tractor when I was very young was the old GP. My first recollection of this tractor was when dad allowed my brother and myself to ride on the tractor with him driving. One of us would sit on the left fender (away from the clutch) and other would sit on the gas tank and hold onto the crankcase breather pipe.
