FLOOD 2007!

Highway 89: Lake Abilene is about 100 ft. to the left
We're on Buffalo Gap Rd right here going over a creek, or should I say through it, just getting into Buffalo Gap
County Road 279 or 280, not sure which. (we didn't see a sign) It is on the west side of the lake


County Road 275

Hey hey kids, it's a flood out there, ya better head for high ground!

Me and Sarah did the opposite yesterday, we went looking for where it was flooding. We drove out to Buffalo Gap and got in to Buffalo Gap but were unable to leave B. Gap via the same road. We were going to try to go down to the State Park but that road was closed so we went further down the road toward Lake Abilene and kept getting cut off due to the flooding. We finally got out of there by going down C.R. 150 leading to Highway 83/84, thanks to a highway patrolman's directions.
It's flooding in a lot of places around Elm Creek but don't worry about us, it's as dry as a bone here.
Sorry I'm not sure where all of this is. We went unprepared by not having a map or gps with us so we were just kind of judging where we were by reading the available street signs.
