Ditch outside is backed way up, fields are flooding, culvert under the road down at the nieghbors is plugged. I was out of town so it wasn't dealt with, now there is piled up snow and the water in the ditch is six feet. City crew came out with a backhoe and we were looking for it, no dice. I got out the gas pump, figured I can cap off the drain into the ditch and pump out the sump when it fills as to not flood the basement.
City guys worked hard and brought me a cap for the pipe, they are coming back, the road is going to flood but so what, it will drain to the other side of the road where the creek is.
Times like this always bring out the best in people, this will pass. Best wishes to everyone, take care and be safe.
