Susquehanna River Flood 2011

On our way to dinner last night we stopped by the bridge in town to see the Susquehanna River swollen beyond its banks.  Most of Berwick sits way up from the river, but across the bridge in Nescopeck it’s a much different story.  In 2006 something very similar happened here, but this seems quite a bit more intense.  The bridge closing is a big deal…it never happens.  Like 5 years ago, throngs of people came out to see the river at near record levels. And seeing the river flowing through Nescopeck making it impossible to get from ‘here’ to ‘there’ without going way out of your way was wild.

Just crazy, that’s about all you can say.  Life’s adventures happen all around you…some are big…some are small…noticing them is the part the matters.

Rock on

I found a few shots from the 2006 event…added them at the end of these.
