Water, water everywhere

So I thought it would be rather remiss of me to not post about the flooding around here. I mean, I'm currently living on an island, which, being in the prairies is kind of rare.
Now that the drama is over and the water is receeding, I'll show you a few of the pics I took before I was unable to access any of the watery roads.

I think by the time the river crested, this sign only read "road".

This is a familiar site around here. There are boats and canoes docked all along the highway because people can't use their driveways or roads to their homes. Makes the commute a little bit longer.

This one here I took from the comfort of my own home. It's the new view from my back window. Beyond the fence and the trees and the top of the dike (the thing that looks like a big wall - for those of you who aren't familiar) is the river.
