biL... With Houston just off the Gulf Coast, this is what happens when we have a huge rain storm moving from north to south - as the storm deposits its rain north of Houston, all the creeks, bayous, and rivers, flow south through the Houston area. So as the waterways rise from the rain in the north, the storm is moving south along with the run-off, and we get a double whammy! Tons of rain from the storm, plus all the run-off from north of us. Seriously, the water does get that high every now and then. Which is why this bayou was deepened and widened leaving the original bent abutements up above the ground.
Greg... I appreciate the comments. I am going quite fast on this one, mainly because I need to get back to work in the layout room. And you are correct, Big Blue is awonderful resource for learning new ways to do things. I love it when someone does a photo tutorial.
Okay... more progress on bent 6
