Branson, Missouri Flooding

This video was shot in Branson, Missouri on Tuesday, March 18, 2008 between 5pm and 6pm Central Time. Opening sequence was shot at Lakeside RV Park (aka: Branson City Campground) located just south of the Branson Landing (where the Business 65 bridge crosses over Lake Taneycomo). As you can see, Lake Taneycomo has risen over its banks and spilled into the small flood plain where this campground is located. Next sequence was shot at Stockstill Park. The raging torrent is the normally-docile Roark Creek. If you look closely, you can see that Roark Creek has also spilled over its northern banks (opposite bank from where I shot this) and is flooding a small portion of the park near one of the baseball fields. According to National Weather Service Radar estimates, Branson and surrounding areas have received between 6 to 10 inches of rain in the past 24 hours.

Oh, this is the March flood. Geez that sucked big time. For the first time our pond, since I was a kid, our pond overflowed and filled the dry creek. It was much worse in Branson I see. I live in Ozark.

Why is John McCain lying about Obama? John McCain says Obama wants to raise taxes on the middle class. In fact, Obama supports tax cuts of $1,000 for middle class Americans. That's right: Obama is in favor of immediate tax relief of $1,000 for middle class Americans. John McCain is a liar. As a Christian, I won't be voting for McCain. I don't vote for liars. Not even liars who can afford to show off $520 Ferragamo shoes while comparing their opponents to Paris Hilton and Britney Spears.

Wow. I haven't seen Stockstill park like that before. I here Bransons nearly reached it's yearly rainfall and it's only august. Last time I lived there we were having some dry years. not near as dry as living in Utah, where I am now though. I really need to get back to the ozarks.
