Buda Bits

Looks so nice to see water in Onion Creek. Come on rain, we want more, more and more.
Although Rita Durham, who lives on South Turnersville Road, had a little too much rain last week. She had wet carpet and furniture and a big mess to clean up. Thanks to Durham’s brother, who has spent this week building a retaining wall at the back of her house to prevent future flooding.
