Pictures are of my neighbors backyard.  He is 6'2".

 

8 foot fence in my backyard.

This is about the normal height that we have seen it.

Flood that happened on July 3,2007.  Water was the highest we have ever seen it.  It rained almost 3-4 inches in about 45 minutes.  Water was at highest point for about 30 minutes.  I estimate that at the lowest elevation in the yard, it was about 3-4ft high deep.  The bridge in Chrystine's backyard was covered by a foot of water.  Don's pool, two houses to the east of mine, was covered by a foot of water.  There was also major flooding on Precinct Line Road, down stream.  Iron Horse Golf Course, and Hwy 820 flooded.
