Drink of Choice

Tex_77 They closed off Highway 11 near Pendleton and Highway 12 near Touchet. There was flooding on areas of the Walla Walla River. Mill Creek which runs through the middle of Walla Walla in flood prevention channels is scary right now. I’ve never seen it so high. The Sexton is a single malt Irish Whiskey and it’s quite nice. The Sazerac may be my new favorite. It’s very smooth for a 90% spirit. I struck out on scoring some Weller. Apparently the local store can only order 3 bottles at a time and they are lucky to see that.

Tex_77 This photo doesn’t do justice. This is across the street from the butcher shop. Normally this would be almost a trickle this time of year and contained to a 6 foot wide center channel. It’s easily 12’ above the norm. I took this photo around 6 this morning.

Tex_77 This is the Walla Walla River (with some idiots) in Milton Freewater, OR. about 10 miles from my location. I just got my first call at the Insurance office today with a home that is flooded in Waitsburg Washington. Unfortunately flood insurance is separate from a homeowners policy. There is mandatory evacuations on Mill Creek near the Oregon border.

Jonathon s request, please list your drink of choice. I’ll start, I love bourbon and Coors Light or a good old Coors yellow belly. My bourbons of choice are Elijah Craig, Bulliet, Maker’s Mark, Jim Beam Black and W.L. Wellers. Now if I just want to pound down some drinks a good 7&7 can’t be beat.

Tex_77 I just got word that the levy in Milton broke at the location of the video I posted
Joe Hell That’s alot of water moving through there!

Joe Hell That’s my gin well chosen

Departing Contestant I don’t buy gin often but wanted all of my bases covered. It’s a good thing I stocked up when I did as that area is now under mandatory evacuation after the levy broke. Apparently yesterday was 24 years to the day of our last major flooding.

Joe Hell later today after a few drinks…

Joe Hell Wow many stay safe and listen to When the levee breaks

I’m most a rum guy, but have lately been introduced to the wonderful (and expensive!!) world of smoky Islay scotches.

Jonathon Joe Hell I think this is what you need to listen to 5 feet high and rising

Hang in there Joe & be safe. We hope it all goes down & a little back to normal soon. We understand.

Tex_77 My favorite local Brewery in Waitsburg (Laht Neppur) is currently surrounded but safe for now
