    I flew through all of them except for the one in the last picture. The bridge washed out and I had to take a mud side road.

    I hate to sound like an "old fogy" but, having worked in EMS, I cringe every time I hear of some kid who spent an afternoon driving through flood water. Recovering bodies from muddy washes is one of the least favorite things emergency services personnel do.
