Storm Watch!

Dun dun duh! It has been raining over here for the last couple of days and not just light sprinkles! SHEETS of rain coming down. Today I was at the gym on my lunch break with a friend when they announced that they were shutting down the gym and most other buildings due to the rain and flooding. They (the Officers in command of the base) are a little paranoid of flooding because of the 2005 flooding that happened here. The flood then had water up into the second stories of houses. Anywho, after all of the hustle and bustle of "evacuating" on the main base Zach and I were sitting at home realizing we had an entire afternoon to do NOTHING! It was an extremely relaxing day today and it was much needed by both of us. The rain stopped about two hours after I got home so about 2pm and we decided to take Missy for a walk around the neighborhood. There are some areas that are a little flooded and the road right outside the gate is still underwater but everything looks pretty normal here. Still massive potholes in the road that grow by the day and the funky smell from the sheep and stray animals when it rains. Keep us in prayer because of the rain. If it continues the way that it has been raining we might be in a bit of a predicament!
