Hillsborough River High Water
Like many days recently, it was raining during lunch yesterday. I pondered going out, figuring the rain would put a damper on my ability to document flotsam. I decided to go ahead, and give my new golf size umbrella a tryout.
It did a good job, providing nice coverage for me and the camera. I wandered down to the river, not for any particular reason. I stood on the Kennedy St bridge, in the little circular area and looked at the river. That is when I noticed that the river, due to all the rain, has risen quite a bit. In fact, it was laping at the edges of Plant Parks river wall. It won’t take much more rain to raise the water up and over the wall, flooding portions of the park.
