Ok...forget that whole cute little "lake" thing! By the next day (Sunday) we went from a little flash flood to major rushing river! And a little excitement turned into "please stop rising!"...as I was afraid the water was going to start coming up through the floor. The water came rushing around our house from the back yard creek, went around the house, as well as under the house on one side and out the other. Water flooded the yard, flooded the garage with about 6" of water, took out an air-conditioning unit on one side, and filled all the duct work underneath the house with creek water, which now has to all be replaced. In spite of all this, I actually consider ourselves lucky, blessed and thankful that this was the least of our misfortune, as so many in Nashville have lost their entire homes, everything, to what is now being called the "Flood of 2010". Damage in Nashville has been devastating, and still continues to create havoc as the Cumberland River is spilling into downtown Nashville...
