Most of what you see here is the result of the breach of the Elm Point Levee. River flooding is now within a half mile of my home. We are safe where we are just some road closings for our troubles is all we have to deal with so we are very lucky. The last time this levee broke was 93 and caused flooding of a power substation and put us without power for over a week. That was during the hot summer. Since then they constructed a large rock levee around the substation and we are glad for that.

The Donny Nolan is southbound conning off the Illinois River into the Mississippi River to meet up with the Titletown near Elsah Illinois. Flooding is at what they call moderate levels in the area and with just a few road closings and minor damage so far we are lucky. Still, with future weather events, we still could be in trouble. Views of Elsah Illinois and Portage Des Sioux Missouri included.
