I have seen a show about extreme log homes where one of them is built over a stream. They say everything was okay with house but during the spring the stream turns into a river from the melting snow and as flooded the log home a couple of times.

Another death row inmate caught with cell phone

HOUSTON — Texas prison officials recovered yet another contraband cell phone from a death row inmate after conducting an X-ray of the man on Friday.
In the second seizure this week since a system-wide lockdown and search for contraband ended, Texas Department of Criminal Justice officers found a phone inside the body of condemned inmate Hank Skinner.
"It was hidden in his rectum," department spokeswoman Michelle Lyons said.
Two cell phone SIM cards were found hidden in Skinner's Bible during a routine search of his cell Friday afternoon at the Polunsky Unit near Livingston. "They suspected he had a cell phone that he would not admit to," Lyons said. "They escorted him to the unit infirmary where they conducted an X-ray and confirmed he was in possession of a cell phone."
Skinner, 46, has been on death row since 1995 for a triple slaying in Pampa in the Texas Panhandle. He already was classified as a Level 3 inmate, the most troublesome, and his latest infraction will influence any future reduction in his security level, Lyons said.
"I think if nothing else, it illustrates how difficult it can be to locate these phones on death row," she said. "It's not only having to look in their property. In some cases, we have to look inside their bodies."
On Wednesday, just hours after the more than three-week lockdown ended, prison officials found a cell phone, a charger, a makeshift weapon and what appeared to be marijuana in the cell of a different death row inmate. The inmate, Mark Stroman, 39, was condemned for killing a Dallas-area convenience store clerk.
