Unless of course it belongs to some poor dudes ex wife that he now pays the mortgage on while she lives in it fricking the jobless 25 year old that she cheated on him with and still got the house because her dick sucking daddy had money enough to hire a pond scum expensive attorney.
Dude you had it rough for a while. Hope a better one finds you.

quote:it already took out the service buildings on the right side; i cant imagine they planned for water hitting at that angle; eventually its going to erode enough around the side of the dam to weaken the whole structure.
What we don't know is how much erosion has occurred around the base of the dam.
eta 100 year old concrete vs full on mother nature.
i'm taking mother nature's side on this one.

That river flows from south to north.

Every once in awhile you can see pieces of asphalt from the road breaking off. And it seems like more of the bottom side of the house is exposed now.

The old man down in the quarter says the water will be down by the morning, and he'll be back to Illinois.

How much would you have to be paid to go stand in the middle of that dam for twenty minutes?

Very big chunk of the bank to the right of the tree slipped away a second ago. Probably 20' wide

i want the other angle back. much better view of how much of the ground under the house had eroded.
someone tell them to switch cameras.

Yeah, needs to zoom back in a bit. I have it on my big screen TV all kinds of distracted and glued
Sitting here wondering how they plan to assess the downstream side of the concrete dam. The center section has some really violent flow we can barely see under that boulder

Tree just slipped in. Big one could be next

Close up of the house teetering on the edge of collapse (6/24/24 3:26 PM)

Pine tree or house first?

You could maybe catch fish from your garage though.

I think the tree goes first, but the water is moving more rapidly closer to the house than it is the tree. But 80% of the house foundation is still holding the rest together while the tree is half way ready to go. The water is moving more rapidly under the house, and it seems like the bulk of the water is diverted away from the tree.
Real toss up. I want to see the house go. I mean, I don't WANT it to go, but if it is going to go, I want to see it. Unless its some cheating bitch like that guy on page one mentioned.
