Duluth experienced incredible flooding this week. Our basement collected some water, but none of our things were damaged since Eli moved things before the water rose. The rain on Tuesday night was incredible and we were shocked to learn that various parts of Duluth were flooded the next day. People have been working to clean up around town the last couple days and there is still much repair work to be done. Who knew that a city on a hill could flood like this?

This afternoon we visited the Rose Gardens and I got to practice using my new camera while Eli relaxed with Caleb. Then we came home and used Eli's new fire pit to enjoy s'mores!
