And when we got up top and saw the whole borrow pit full and the water even creeping up the concrete part of the foundation, I was thanking it all the more. We're fine, it won't go up over, but this is the highest I've seen it here, and Gary, who has been here a heck of a lot longer, says it is as high as he's seen since he can remember.
