GDB discussion board...  just passing it on!  

I got a kick out of the radio talking about that flooding yesterday.  One of the roads near While Rock is set up with a red light that flashes when there's flooding, to warn people not to drive into the water. Yesterday, with lights flashing away, three people drove into it anyway. Four foot deep water isn't very vehicle friendly, unless that vehicle is a boat.....
