Washington Flood
I’m finally able to catch my breath after a round of rotten weather in these parts. I am lucky enough to live on higher ground so the flooding we experienced last week in our region didn’t hit me. It did however hit many, many people I know and love. I’ve had lots of houseguests. Ten in all over the course of eight days. I was so happy to have been able to offer a warm dry place to stay while their houses flooded out or were not able to get to their house due to roads being under water or wiped out by a mood slide. Only one friend was able to go back to live in her house – the rest have found other places to stay with the help of the Red Cross.
And of course the cleanup has been brutal. Ground floors destroyed with all their belongings. Entire house remodels are to be expected.
