Curt is Chicago native - but don't hold that against him. After stops in Madison and California, he moved to Waukesha in 2004 to open a downtown business.
A Little Rain
I know something is up when my dad calls from Florida mid week.
We usually talk every Sunday, so if I see his number ring through on a Thursday night, it means there is some breaking news to report.
The call stemmed from a news reel on The Weather Channel. Pictures of people wading through waist-high water in Milwaukee were being shown in between updates of the local forecast.
My father, concerned we were floating away up here, gave me a quick call to check on our well being. And I assured him that we were fine.
To say our rainfall here was substantial may be an understatement. Typical for a spring rainfall in Wisconsin, but impressive none the less.
I was able to get some pictures of the Fox River last night. It hasn't been this high since the floods we saw last year.
But our little river has once again proved its worth by taking on all that water and sending it south. And as of this morning, the water level has already dropped.
Too bad I can't say the same for the water in my basement. Surfs up, dude!
