Sorry for my absence...

I have started a new job & was taking time to get adjusted to a new job. BUT, we had major flooding in my area this week & are still expecting more rain. My son's house got 2 ft of water in the first floor. I have been & will be helping him to get his house in order so that he has a home before it gets too cold out.

I am sorry I haven't been here & I do miss all of you. Here is a pic i did manage to snap while surveying the situation & devising a game plan for cleaning the mess.
It was a whirlpool of water over a storm drain...

I understand the whole flood situation...I was affect by it too. I'm sorry to hear about your son's house. Hope he didn't lose too much. I know a town near me, many people lost items up to the first floor.

We are doing well on the clean-up so far. Got all the damaged goods out & now have the floors & walls bleached down the first time. Thanks for everyone's support. I did take some more kewl shots, but just getting time to get them edited & uploaded is a little difficult... here is a few more...
