Isaac’s rain fills the lake…beautiful morning after

As we sat at home on Monday we watched the rain bands from Isaac come and go. We noticed that the edge of the pond/lake that we look over started to move over it’s banks, over the grass and towards our apartment. One of the maintenance men went by and Mary asked him about the height of the water and he said that the county said that no more water could be released into the canals because they were all filled to their peak. Luckily the rain stopped before the water got really menacing and it was fun to see the fish and turtles come up on the grass.

Turtles came up on the lawn to get some bread…the water over lapped the lower pool deck…the high water mark shows how the water came before it stopped raining.

Tuesday morning provided a beautiful sky as the sun returned to Fort Lauderdale.
