These pictures we took today. The water has receded some but the damage was bad. Last weekend we had a terrible 2 days of storms. Causing flooding in the city I was in along with other cities and towns. In my city it has caused 51 million dollars of damage. The pictures I am posting are of 2 bridges that were totally distroyed and some of the building that were wreaked. Tomorrow I will post a video and some more pictures of a road that still has water running over it and is very damaged.

These first 7 are of the first bridge we were at.

The next ten are of a few buildings that were destroyed and also an auto yard. THe first one shows how high things are because Doug is 6 feet tall so you can see with him in the picture how high it got.

I have not heard anything of anyone being seriously hurt. But many people are now without homes and have lost everything.

Hope everyone is all right in your family after the flooding. Here in the states a storm came up suddenly & a family in their motor home were tossed into a lake by the strong winds. Will you have help for the clean up? Here in the states the federal government helps with that but it takes forever.
