Day 168: Unhappy surprises

It's been raining like crazy all night in Chicago and I woke up at 4:30 this morning to a very unpleasant noise - the sound of the sump pump alarm in my parent's basement. I woke up my Dad who quickly ran downstairs to find their entire basement flooded. And I'm not talking a little puddle - I'm talking boxes floating away on a river of nastiness. Turns out there's flooding all over the region and even the trains to the city are shut down. Looks like we'll finally be cleaning all the junk out of the basement that my Mom has been bugging us about for years!
