We are stranded!

So every year we end up getting stranded in Laveen. There are only two roads that cross the river to get to laveen so when there is water in the river, we have two choices of roads to use. It's a pain in the butt. The funny thing is when we moved here there was NO water in this river and Chris and I actually laughed when we drove across this stretch of street at all the signs that said "don't cross when flooded". There wasn't a drop of water to be seen and we really thought they were kidding. They were not:-(

Today we took a bike ride down to the river to check out the damage of the road.

Road Closed!


The road that lets us out of Laveen flooded!


Checking it out up close!


The water is actually moving really fast!


Broedy wading.


Another view of the road.


They said the water was pretty cold.


A cute little girl!


Some stupid driver decided it would be a good idea to cross the flooded river and lost their car. You can also see where the road is actually washed out. I think we're going to be stranded forever.


Throwing rocks!
