It really never happens here. Remember, we live in an old part of the country. I once worked on a main sewage line in a town next to ours that was made from an old tree. And, a lot of dams are made of dirt. So, when something like this does happen, nothing and nobody is prepared.
My Daughter just called and told me that the road we used to live on is gone. Well, a mile of it is gone anyway. Our old pond and bridge is gone. And, the water from the land I still own decided to go through the dining room of our old house

Nobody lives there yet.
