I really don’t remember the last time the Laguna de Santa Rosa was this full. Maybe it was late 2012? In a space of three days, the Laguna went from famine to feast. That is, from just a waterway, to small ocean. The overflow has brought out kayakers to explore the environs and now invisible landmarks. The flooding of the Laguna seems to be a cleansing of it’s palate. When the water recedes, no doubt things will be a little different and very muddy. One problem that I forgot about were the ants. Theses bugs don’t like water and cling to anything that floats to the shoreline. Stand in the debris and you get covered with them. Creepy.
