“Normally, there’s a foot of water here,” said John MacDonald of the wetlands behind his house. He was walking near these birch trees, to remove kudzu, something he hasn’t been able to do in the 18 years he’s lived on Altamont Road. He took this picture Wednesday after a day of steady rain and, he said, “There were little puddles here and there.”
