Yesterday Ryan's basketball team had their semi-final game. I was so excited to go since for the first Saturday in a long time I had no other commitments to rush off to. We arrive ready for action to find out that we were an hour early. It turned out to be fine since the winning team from the game playing was going to be the team Focus would be playing for the final if they won their game.
The game started and unfortunately Focus wasn't on their A-game since they were a little out of practice. You see Focus was doing so well in all the pre tournament games that teams would just not show up and take the loss other then play them. The second quarter starts and Focus is down only a few baskets when the rain starts coming down…. really coming down. The game actually ends up stopping since the roof to the covered court is slightly leaking onto the court and no one wants there to be any injuries. We sit down for a while watching the lightning flash in the sky and watching Madison get startled from the booming thunder then giggle at herself jumping from the noise. The rain is only getting harder and the streets along the court are starting to really flood. After about 45 minutes they decide to cancel the game and pick it up the following weekend. Before we leave I took a couple of shots of the streets and how flooded they got after 30 minutes of heavy rain fall.
I know that Lethbridge is getting a lot of rain and yes, our basement has water in it too but hopefully the streets aren't looking quite this bad!? At least the kids were enjoying it!
