Nashville’s Flood of the Century + Prize Giveaway Winner




Ok, this is going to be an odd post.  Over the weekend, Nashville experienced unprecedented flooding following 14+ inches of rain in 36 hours.  I’ve spent a great deal of those hours bailing water out my basement, so I haven’t had time to focus too much on decorating!  This is my house and our attempts to keep the water out. 2010 05 02 14.34.12 Nashvilles Flood of the Century + Prize Giveaway Winner 


This is a picture of the creek that is now a lake in my backyard.  Thankfully, our house is on the hill above this.   The folks on the other side of the creek didn’t fare as well.
