Been a while

since either one of us updated this blog. I spent last weekend trying to make a dent in the huge load of work that my parents were given during the flooding that occurred recently. I helped trim up the drywall in one room so that Dad can replace it, since North River decided to take an uninvited mini-vacation in their house. We also were able to make a few dump runs. I was glad to find out that the county is giving people affected by the flooding vouchers so that they can get rid of all the stuff that was ruined. Better that than illegal dumping, which I am positive would have been rampant otherwise.

The place looks really weird with no carpets and one third of the walls gone, but eventually things will be put back to normal again. I hope to get down there again very soon and lend my back some more. Jami wanted to trailer down the horses, but I was concerned with the state of the graze that would be available, given that not only did the river flood the field, but also any septic tanks and neighboring pastureland that was briefly turned into river bottom. Not sure the horses' stomachs, being rather touchy to begin with, would handle that too well. I did take some pictures while I was there, but didn't want to post them. Maybe when all is put back together, I can post an entry in this blog that shows before and after. We will see.wow gold
