We woke up with our home on quite a lean this morning. So so much rain! There is so much water that the ropes have held us fast and pulled our starboard side down toward the bank. Auto close on a few doors!
On rivers where this is expected with the usual rise and fall of the river, ropes are tied to rings which slide up & down poles. The mooring bank isn't ground, but floating pontoons with bridges to the land. So our river boaters are still level. But then they can end up settling on a field if their ropes pull off...
Canals don't usually rise this much, so the first thing Pete will race out to do after breakfast is to let the water out. Flood paddles open, wier boards off, we should be level later today.
