Please excuse the quality of this photo. I took it through my office window using one hand. BUT! I wanted you to see how the rain we received in Middle TN has affected the Harpeth River. Areas of Middle Tennessee received more than 3 inches of rain yesterday, swelling a number of creeks and small rivers.
The small photo at right is another view of the river.
The cow pasture behind us has a lot of water in it (foreground of photo), and the river has gone over its banks. What you cannot tell from the photos is how swift the current is. I can see it from here, and at times I notice downed tree limbs and such moving along.
Note the vibrant green grass and the green starting to appear on the trees. Spring is here!
Again, I apologize for the quality of the photos. I just wanted you to see how swollen the Harpeth is right now.
Please Note: As I have mentioned, I just had shoulder surgery and don't have use of my right hand since it is in a sling and stationary. I am visiting blogs, but it is hard for me to comment since I can type only with one hand.

Hope you are feeling better, Chris.
This is nice work. I like everything about it -- light color, shadow, texture.
I hope you can visit my brookvilleohiodailyphoto.blogspot.com blog and read about my hospital visit.

Hope your arm gets better soon. And hope the flooding situation gets better soon too.
That's a lot of rain. The water table will be happy this summer.
Yes, we keep hearing about this nasty weather in TN and LA...In the meantime, we are still dry as a bone!
Sorry to hear about your shoulder. Was it a planned surgery? Hope you are healing well and will be back, swinging that tennis racket in no time ;-)
Hope the water goes down before the next rain.
I will believe you, that it's moving rapidly!
Best of healing vibes, for your shoulder surgery. Worry not about visiting/commenting in our blogs. We certainly understand.
It's wonderful that you are taking pics with one hand!!! :-)
Hugs,
