Overflowing River (night of 10/07/2015)

I am in the countryside walking along a wide path. To my left there is bucolic countryside; farmland, fields, trees etc. To my right, and raised above the height of the path I am on is  a river. The river - which may be man made much like a canal - has many interesting weirs and waterfalls. I am interested in watching the foamy water fall. The river suddenly overflows. It comes onto the path I am on. I leap up onto a raised embankment on the other side of the path. I watch the water cover the path and rise. I hide down in the grass. The foamy water is level to where I am.
