Roxie, a 7-year-old rottweiler and German shepherd mix, protects the Ashworth residence in the Rose Hill Acres community on Sunday, Oct. 22, 2006. The bayous and rivers flooded several Hardin County neighborhoods as the previous week's rains pushed south.

Don Ashworth sloshes into his home in the Rose Hill Acres community. He placed his prized motorcycles safely on a trailer to protect them from the flood that took his garage.

The duck and goose were swimming through about six feet of water over a city street. My waders let me get into water about five feet deep. I was cool wading around chest high until I saw these hors d'oeuvres du gator.
