Sept 27 2016 results of flooding on golf course

yes that is a whole tree pretty flowing down and stuck on the bridge that they golfers have to cross to go to the next hole
They have since replaced all the bridges on all 8 of Jim's courses and raised them higher by about 5 feet so that this won't happen any more.  Everyone keeps asking us about all the flooding that they hear about going on down here.  Well our house is up on a hill with no water near by so other than mud spreading on the roads from the lots where they haven't built the other houses in our neighbourhood - the golf courses are the only place we see damage.  We just stay away from the flooded streets.  We obey those signs that say if there is water on the road - turn around - don't drown.  I used to laugh at those signs but after you watch all the drowning reports on the news, you start to take them more seriously.  Flash floods are common.
