Thanks. We got away relatively unscathed though. Just a mile or two up the road from us is one of the most expensive subdivisions in the area and all you can see there are roof tops. Those people will have lost pretty much everything. We drove by there last night and I can’t imagine what that’s like. Dozens were just standing at the mouth of the subdivision, no doubt just looking on completely helpless.

I know we don’t stand in any real danger of flooding so I can only hope it subsides enough so that people in that kind of situation can begin putting their lives back together. It’s not Katrina here, by any means, but for many families I’m sure it’s not much different.

Hang in there, man. It took us two years to return to any semblance of normalcy after Katrina. The obvious thing is to keep yourselves safe and everything else will work itself out, no matter how gloomy it seems. Best of luck to you all, and here’s to hoping it doesn’t get much worse.
