Well, here is the updated info on our flooding here. I don't usually 
post when I am sad, but this morning I am. Yesterday I was able to 
finally look at just how bad the flood damage was to our farm from the 
Pacheco Creek flooding. We have a 6 foot deep gully that is up to 30 
feet wide through two of our most productive fields! In addition the 
remainder of one of those two is covered with a layer of rocks from the 
flood. I am just trying to figure out whether there is some way to fix 
this economically. We shall see. Over 40 acres of land damaged there in 
those two fields. I was taking video last night and can't post that, but 
I am attaching a picture that shows where they are on the edge of the 
open water where one creek heads into the lake. Every part of this 
picture with water except for the creek beds is normally fields, 
pastures and homes....
