cowpuc Posted May 13, 2014 #1 Posted May 13, 2014 Welllll,,, cotton picken monsoons we have been having have created what appears to be a no win for our basement/shop.. Got a sump in and it does seem to helping a little but it looks like I may need to add a couple more, running out of time on getting it under control by Thursday:crying: There is ALWAYS a chance that our areas flood conditions will crest (its been almost 24 hours since our last massive T-Storm) and we will still make it down yonder:fingers-crossed-emo but mother nature sure has me:think:. I want to go ahead and send my St. Judes contribution in for our team - "Team Dingy".. I have Paypal and would like to send it out if someone would PM me a Paypal account or post one up.. Sure wish we could talk Mrs. Nature into sending some of these gallons and gallons of water out to those places that have been burning and are in drought,,,, just plain crazy!! Puc
Flyinfool Posted May 13, 2014 #2 Posted May 13, 2014 Sorry to see that. And there is rain in the horrorcast every day this week. You know you get our leftovers......

b2dad Posted May 14, 2014 #6 Posted May 14, 2014 Sure sorry to hear the news cowpuc. But there are grateful frogs in the south. Hope the flooding stops soon as it can be a mess to clean up. Come on down if it gets better there. Saying a prayer that the rains stop
XV1100SE Posted May 14, 2014 #7 Posted May 14, 2014 Sorry to see the mess. Sounds like you are on top of it and hopefully the water level goes down soon.
BuckShot Posted May 14, 2014 #8 Posted May 14, 2014 Sorry to hear and see the pic's. Hope things change for you. Don and Patti's fish fry is the best.
ragtop69gs Posted May 14, 2014 #9 Posted May 14, 2014 Well, that just plain sucks Been there, done that and it's never a fun time. Is that a lake behind the house or a flooded field? I was lookin forward meeting you and Tippy. We're praying for it to go away.
Bones158 Posted May 14, 2014 #10 Posted May 14, 2014 Puc, that is a lot of water. Looks like my home in Florida. We hope you get all the water cleaned up with no additions added to it. Oh we can send you some frog legs if ya want. Dead or alive your call. Just kidding going to miss meeting you this time around. Maybe at the National in Gunterville. Good Luck
CaptainJoe Posted May 14, 2014 #11 Posted May 14, 2014 Hopefully mother nature will knock it off and I'll get the chance to met you and Tippy at B2's...
stickhandle2 Posted May 14, 2014 #12 Posted May 14, 2014 Good luck to ya Puc, as others have said......been there and done that, not fun.
OrlinEngh Posted May 14, 2014 #13 Posted May 14, 2014 Sure hope it starts drying out for you , it looks like our area last year at this time. Orlin
Dragonslayer Posted May 14, 2014 #14 Posted May 14, 2014 (edited) Sorry to see that. And there is rain in the horrorcast every day this week. You know you get our leftovers......Alright Jeff, quit picking on the Pucster, You have been harassing him all winter long now it's springtime and your still picking on him. Enough is enough, what did Puc ever do to you. Don't make me send some Southern Fried whoop-Ar$$ up there to turn your little weather machine off. By the way do you have a license for that weapon of mass destruction your playing with. Hadn't anybody ever told you it aint nice to mess with Mother Nature and it being Mother's Day just last Sunday. Where are your manners anyway. And Puc, Just in case Jeff don't start behaving Hope you can make it to the B2's I had a Southern Hospitality Surprise for you. Edited May 14, 2014 by Dragonslayer
Flyinfool Posted May 14, 2014 #15 Posted May 14, 2014 Why yes I do have a license, I also have a certificate which proves that I am certifiable. But the off button on the weather machine seems to be broken. At least it ain't ,,,,,,,, yet. There are a lot of good southern fried things, bring them on up...... Besides, I am sure that ol Puc has a laundry list of bad things he is gonna unleash on me some day when we meet..... All kidding aside. Puc, I sure hope that you are drying out at least a little. At least enough to make it down to B2MOMs and not have to worry. I only wish I could head down there to.
hushpuppy Posted May 14, 2014 #16 Posted May 14, 2014 Sure wish there was a way to get that water to West Texas-- We are dry!
