Hungry Hanna

Here is a few pictures of the damage Hanna did to our road. Please check it out and pray with us that it gets fixed....ASAP!
This is a pic of one side as the incoming water starts to chip away at the road.
This is the outgoing side. As you can see it didnt take long for there to be a very BIG hole there!
This is the width of road as it is being blocked off. If you look carefully, you can see the dirt caving in on each side. This was at about 11am.
This is THE HOLE. As you can see it is very wide and very deep. The water was still RUSHING thru at this point. This was at about 12:30.
Here is a different angle. This pipe is where the water was SUPPOSED to be going thru.
This all happened because of a large pond across the street from us started flowing over the earthen dam, so they had to let some of the water go out of it, causing massive water flow into the pipe, thus wiping the road out!
