i probably would have drove off the road also, but after i picked my bike up out of the ditch i would have kept on going. i cant see spending money just to stare at half naked women. and i would probably get a better wash job if i were to do it my self.

So far I've been pretty lucky, the highest water I've personally been through was barely over the floor boards but others in the region have been hit extremely hard with the flooding.

Is Lake Lanier filled up again now so you can allow more water to flow down to FL?

Yeah Danny, it is flooding in the Metro Atlanta area, really bad in places. Earlier in the week parts of I-285, I-85, I-75, I-20,. . . were under water. Lots' of homes destroyed, and at least 8 people killed in the flood waters that I heard about. There are entire schools and neighborhoods completely underwater. I don't know about Lake Lanier, but I drove across Allatoona Lake at I-75 coming home last night and from what I can see it is more than full. Parts of the surrounding area got as much as 20" of rain over the 3 day weekend last weekend. It had already been raining almost every day before the big deluge hit over the weekend. My home is about 120 miles North of Atlanta and my workshop was flooded at least 4 separate times. The ground is so saturated that every downpour just stays on the surface and runs across the yards and up against and over anything in it's path. Part of the problem was that the storm systems just sat in place for days, dumping enormous amounts of rain constantly. I've seen it rain that hard plenty of times, but it's usually over in a few hours at the most sometimes just 20-30 minutes, but these storms just dumped rain for days non stop. The president declared North Georgia a disaster area and Vice President Joe Biden flew in to Marietta (1st big city North of Atlanta, often referred to as a suburb of Atlanta) today and made a speech. I think Easy Rider has a kid in the Atlanta area, hope they are okay.
