walking a fine line, in my region.
The season has been warm and wet:
enough rain for concern about flooding anyway.

The rivers are unusually high for February, however.
Now the weather is cool, clear and dry,
and I see the water line going down gradually.
This bodes well for this region.

I have an absolute horror of flooding or surges.
My blood freezes to hear about the mudslides and floodwaters
in other parts of the country.
