We’ve had some crazy weather here in the state of Washington over the last week (in case you missed it all over the National news!) Snow one day, then hurricane force winds and massive rain/flooding. This was a picture I took a couple days ago of a street just a block and a half from my house. And trust me, this is the tame pictures. In other areas cars are under water, roads are collapsing,–not to mention parts of I5 (the major highway that connects Seattle to Portland) have literally become part of the river and are shut down.

Have a great Wednesday!!
