Interesting perspective on this shot, with all those Georgia pines in it. A shame about the house. After years of drought, February's rains have been a blessing--except in cases like the one you've captured here.

Yes, Noledawg, we did need the rain vey badly. It just came a little too quickly - here and above us. I sure hope it raises the water in Clark's Hill Lake (aka Lake Thurmond) near you. It's our favorite place to camp and boat.

We got close to 10 inches during February here in the Augusta area, Gayle--after less than half an inch in January. I just hope we can get some in April, when all that yellow pollen coats everything and blows in the air. My wife's also a retired teacher; taught 31 years in Georgia and 5 years in South Carolina.

Excellent photojournalism, Gayle!! I'll email this series to the Satilla Riverkeeper. My husband was the interim Satilla Riverkeeper a few years ago, after Gordon Rogers was recruited to be the Flint Riverkeeper, a licensed member of the Waterkeeper Alliance. They still have John, and also, Laura/SunsetSailor on the staff webpage. Clay Montague became the Interim Riverkeeper & Executive Director after Bill Miller stepped down in February 2012. Applications for a new RIVERKEEPER are being accepted until March 15. Please spread the word to interested applicants.

In the thumbnail, it does look like a collage of photos! The composition and the gorgeous reflections of the pine trees and the colorful roof make this an absolutely gorgeous image of the Satilla River flood. I hope the home is built high enough to stay dry on the first floor!

Gayle, you and Laura are doing a great job with your photojournalism of this flood! The Georgia Rivers Network has a monthly Photo Showcase. Each month is a different theme. March's Theme: "Capturing a River Issue in Georgia". Please consider sending in this magnificent photo.

About swampteach
swampteach Hi, I'm Gayle. I'm a retired teacher and am very much enjoying all of God's blessings - especially our grandchildren and traveling. My husband and I love to travel in our RV, and though I'm definitely an amateur, I enjoy taking pictures of the amazing beauty to be found everywhere we go. I first fell in love with this site when I used the wunderful radars as a weather teaching tool in my classroom. Thanks Wunderground! Since I retired I discovered how much I enjoy seeing the world through the pictures here. I am so inspired by the beauty captured by you talented people. There's much to learn from all of you. Thanks everyone!
