More flooding

We had a dry day this weekend and i was feeling quite good about living in Broomfield and how we were perfectly fine, despite the rest of the state being washed away by flooding.

So Sunday, it POURED for two hours straight and Lowell started to flood and for the first time, fear struck!! And when i got closer to home, i couldn't believe my eyes when i looked our neighborhood park!!! It was OVERFLOWED!!! The entire park was now a lake! I was thinking, "Great, i had to go jinx myself"

I, of course, took Cody to go check it out!

It has overflowed all the way to the play area

And beyond

It's a two foot drop past the concrete sides

Cody found it fun to wade around in his rain boots

Depth of the flooding

Convinced him to venture a little further.. just a little...

The lake usually starts quite a bit past the other side of the path

What a lot of flooding lucky you have this area for the rain to collect in
