| Commute to work almost all the way to downtown. The Mary's River flooded the bike path by the softball diamond across from Avery Park. I don't recall seeing the river that high before. I could ride around that part, but just past the ultimate frisbee field I was blocked by the river. |

| Ran to Bald Hill and met Paula and Annie there. A flock of geese was in the field by the barn. We ran up around the loop past the bridge on Mulkey Creek. I had forgotten how nice the forest is up there. All of the trees that were across the trail had been cleared away. On the way back to the car, we heard gun shots which spooked the geese. All the flocks flew around, but then they landed over near us by the barn. We saw some guy out on an ATV picking up something (dead birds?) off in the distance. Not sure if he was shooting them or doing something else. |

| Ran with Paula and Annie at Bald Hill. The tree that had fallen at Mulkey Creek was already cleared away. In the swampy area, there was a big chunk of tree on the trail, but other than that there wasn't much damage from the storm. |

| Commute to work via downtown. Big storm last night knocked out power all over the northwest First the power went out at home while we were getting ready for my office Christmas party. On the way to the country club, the lights went out around the office and even the radio station that we were listening to. We wondered if the party was going to happen at all, but fortunately, the lights were on when we got there. The wind drove the rain sideways when we ran for the building from the car. Hors'doevres happened with lights, but when dinner was served the power disappeared. We had some flashlights so we went through the buffet line scooping mystery food onto our plates. There were small candles on the tables, so it made for a romantic mood. I couldn't see exactly what I was eating, so I ate more kidney beans than I normally would. They were hiding in the pasta salad.
At home, we still had no power and no water either because the pump requires electricity. It was late, so we just went to bed. In the morning, still no power.
On the bike, I counted 5 power trucks cruising around checking the power lines with spot lights. I encountered 5 or 6 fallen trees on the bike path. One was a 3-foot in diameter big boy that fell between Shonnards and the old Montessori school. I had to get on the highway to get around it. The Mary's River was full and boiling. I thought sure that it would be on the bike path, but it didn't quite make it. Lots of crap from the trees on the path, so roller skiing is going to be an adventure until it gets cleaned up. |

| Ran with Annie at Bald Hill. It was pouring again, so the trail was flooded in places. Mulkey Creek was raging, which caused a tree to fall across the trail. |

| Commute to work via downtown. It rained very hard last night, so the marshes and rivers are very high. One section of the bike path was under water. |
