Well I got the foundation drains cleared Thursday night and they had a lot of water backed up in them. This made a huge difference and with the rains Friday as I could see tons of water draining out into the drain trenches. Then I got up early yesterday and filled them in with rock (10 bags backyard, 5 bags front) this gives the water a place to fill and then they both run to my grass. It was unreal how much water was flowing threw them yesterday with the rain after I finished. I had some touch up work on the front yard this morning and it looks like I never even did a thing (can't see the wor

I think the laws would need to be carefully written.. I agree the extreme skier on the 15000 foot slope should be some what responsible. But the eagle scout is not off the trail by much. The true question is where do you draw the line.... It's the extreme that can fall in the gray area...

I think this is a slippery slope we are going down. It could back fire all over the place. What about fireman and the fire at your house... will you now pay for them to respond? The cop to respond? It could get ugly...

New Flash Flood Watch Issued For Metro Atlanta; More Rain Coming

Mad me snicker..... un rain dance.... Just think a year ago we were bone dry... We don't need any rain for a month or so. -
I was wondering if Paulding County would be providing some type of debris removal like the other counties that are effected. Kind of looks like you want the county to provide you with a debris removal... not you paying for it... Then you make the note (complain) about you having to do it with your own trailer.... Read your own thread dang... _____________________________________________________ Oh and I did note that it would be in the best interest of the county to provide them... for health reasons. Can I get you some glasses .... you seem to read what you want and mi

Yea I need a dehumidifier also, Smell is just about gone... But it can't hurt to run one to be sure it is really dry.

Looks like gas will stay down for awhile for now. http://www.comcast.net/articles/finance/20.../US.Oil.Prices/ $66 a barrel.... sweet At least there is some good news

If it is running around the house like you say and drains out then it sounds like you are good as far as the drain pipe. Not sure what might be causing your seepage then. Also check that the soil around your house slopes away also. Good luck.

Check your foundation drains..... That was my problem and I had a lot of water in my basement. These are black 3" round and run around your house at the base of your foundation. This takes the water way from the house and lets it drain in the yard. My ends were blocked and once I opened them up a ton of water came out. I have to put some rock down and divert them way from the house more.

Good reason.. Don't need a bunch of sick kids at school .....

Got to ask since I have not heard of the schools being flooded. If they are hey no school until they get it fixed etc. But why is school canceled for today and tomorrow? Just wondering.... roads for the most part will be the same on Monday.
-
Well either way you have to pay for it. I love your sig.... and you want the goberment to pick your stuff up... oxymoron at its pinnacle Interesting.... LOL ...... I would think as an after thought, think it would be in the best interest that they had the jail birds work on this debris removal as in the long run it could be a health hazard as a lot of folks with damage and most don't have flood insurance. So the stuff would sit and sit and sit..

I wonder if we are now passing flood waters down the river to them and it causes flooding when it could be used to fill the lake. Now that would be funny... We have to flood them legally....
