As I was booking my flight, the available time/day options started disappearing before I could even decide. Thanks for the heads-up links, Galen.

I seem to recall that happening last year. Don’t be surprised if some sales get delayed as the banks ask for places to be checked to see if they were in a flood area.

We have a listing near Greenlake, pending sale, due to close this Friday. Six inches of water in the mostly unfinished basement which had been dry during our seller's 10 years of ownership. Furnace is wet, the carpets in the two finished spaces, ruined. So a little negotiating (and updating of the Form 17) taking place to ensure the buyer is comfortable with this newfound "condition."

I'd be taking a boat to work yesterday if I still lived there. I’m glad I moved out of Carnation a few years ago. I’d be taking a boat to work yesterday if I still lived there.

I feel for all of those people who have been flooded out and stranded. My thoughts are with you. Most of us were very lucky to just have a really long, gray, wet day.

We were spared up here along the Nooksack River this time...
