Larry -
Glad to see/hear you're OK so far. Is your house set back from the
river a little more than some of those on the other side? Felton was
specifically mentioned in articles on CA flooding in our local
Milwaukee paper today. Our son and his family live about 15 miles
from SLO and have been out of power for over 24 hours.
Good to see first hand pix of what's happening our there - keep 'em
coming - but more importantly, keep safe.

I actually did use my Pentaxes to get some photos of the weather fun
we've been having. I used my K-3 and 16-50 back on New Years Eve,
then mostly played with my Irix 11/4 today after last night's rains.
The funny thing is that I had taken a fair number of photos before I
realized that I had put it on my K-3 rather than my K-1, so I went
back, swapped bodies (I often wish I could do that with my own body)
and then got some real wide angle photos.
If a few of the photos you can see my home made depth gauge. The
photos at the end of the set show the river after it had dropped to
16 feet, a little deeper than it got on the 31st. At its deepest
this morning I think it was a bit over 18' deep.
Granted, that's 18' over the portion of the river bed that is usually
not under water, the normal channel is maybe 1/3-1/2 as wide as it
is when it goes cliff to cliff.

Like a fool, I figured that today was going to be nice and dry, and
while they need to do some work on 17 on the side heading home,
they'll be long done with that before I need to go home. It turns out
they finished a bit before 10PM, I had to take some back roads, with
mud from slides, missing pavement, and some trees here and there, but
I got home even it took me an hour and 15 minutes rather than 45.
We're supposed to get another nice big storm tonight, and I'm
planning on working from home tomorrow.
