There's more to come says Mr. Weatherman.
Meanwhile, under that water was left 2 semi trucks of driftwood from logs 6 feet across to lovely madrone roots and tons of Robinson Crusoe material.
A great fun pile to mess about in.

It's cool what treasures the raging waters bring from uphill. I bet that you will be using a lot of this treasure for photographs, paintings, and just sheer viewing pleasure.

I am sort of socked in here so I have been playing guitar six+ hours a day off and on, rather than the basic three. I am at the top of the hill butted up to Marin "open space". My view to the north is of the bay and across to Napa and Sonoma Counties. To the east is the Richmond/San Rafael Bridge and part of Berkeley Hills. The visuals here are pretty stunning, even in the rain.

Mother Nature does have her little jokes, "you want rain, I'll give you rain"
We've not had any problems, not even power outages, just rain, hail, snow and wind. We don't need to worry about flooding.
Being up in the tree, it's kind of hard holding the umbrella for Bob in the strong wind gusts. No need to worry about our next reunion, we have plenty of guest trees.
