Flood Update

I just wanted to update everyone on the flood. Most of the water is gone now. We have a lot of ice, mud and some water left. A lot of people still have water in their basements. I wonder how long it will take to get things dried up. Some of the people of Linton have been making meals, donating household items, clothing and a lot of time. It is so amazing how the community has come together to help out. It is very sad to visit with the flood victims. Most everyone I have talked with are so devastated. They are still in shock. Some are very angry, others still very sad. Now people are starting to clean up, what a process that is. Yesterday and today, we had fairly nice weather, so a lot of people were able to empty their basements. Old town is covered with washers, dryers, refridgerators, freezers, beds, matresses and lot of wood and junk. Some people have been lucky and found housing already, some are staying with family and friends. Please keep everyone in your thoughts and prayers, this is going to be a very long process. I also want to add, that I am proud to be a part of such an awesome community. Everyone is helping each other out. People have definitly come together to help out.

Oh, I almost forgot, we are now in a Blizzard Warning, yes you read that right! We are looking to get 10 to 12 inches of snow by Wednesday am along with 40 mph winds. I love snow, but this is getting old. We are all ready for spring. I wonder what will happen when this melts.
I will chat again soon. Thanks for visiting.
