Re: Worried

Glad to hear you're high and dry. Sorry to hear about the other parts of the state!

I worked flood cleanup extensively back in 1972 after Agnes. It's incredible to see what water can do. I saw entire neighborhoods of basements with no houses on top of them; they were carried away by the water. One 3-story apartment building was sitting cockeyed, I asked a local guy about it and he said "see that chain link fence? The building used to be on the other side of it!" The flood had picked the whole building up and dropped it 15 feet downstream. Lots and lots of other weird/eerie things. Lots and lots of people displaced from their homes.
