I love your website. <br /> <br />The night of July 24th, the rains came and came, etc. The Tanque Verde Wash topped out over 13 feet here at the TV Ranch. The water came all the way inland past the bbq area and washed away all the picnic tables and chairs just for starters. Pretty powerful!<br /> <br />Best regards,<br />MarciaMargarethe Brummermannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05623937180200255796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-446924751738546355.post-71149838580685464652010-08-17T21:48:30.777-07:002010-08-17T21:48:30.777-07:00Great story!Great story!Ted C.

In our case, we crossed the bridge around Amando and noticed a full river, but when we drove up to Madera a few minutes later, bone dry. We then just sat and waited for the water to catch up with us. Very cool!<br /><br />cheers<br /><br />bruceMargarethe Brummermannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05623937180200255796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-446924751738546355.post-29270159405412157972010-08-17T03:27:21.972-07:002010-08-17T03:27:21.972-07:00Very interesting post--I'm glad you weren'...Very interesting post--I'm glad you weren't hurt! My dad grew up in Nebraska on a dairy ranch/farm, and he told me stories about bugs that would gather up balls of manure and roll them around. (He and his brother would watch them when they were supposed to be working.) He called them "roller bugs." I wasn't sure they were real until now. :)The Fuller Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09617840841275896662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-446924751738546355.post-54228860028611855592010-08-16T09:03:36.744-07:002010-08-16T09:03:36.744-07:00Fun (and very engrossing) story!
