After The Flood Report

It rained and rained and rained starting last Tuesday night and the Big Thompson River spilled over its banks Thursday night and it kept raining.  Luckily I live over a mile from the river and I can report no flooding and no leaking in my house.  Many people in Colorado were not so lucky as the waters flooded houses and took out bridges and roads.  The news says 15,000 houses damaged and destroyed and many families now are homeless.  Please, if you can please contribute to the Red Cross as they have been very helpful here and their supplies have been depleted.

My performance for the Larimer County Humane Society was cancelled due to the flooding and Loveland was split in half by the Big Thompson River flooding over all the bridges including Interstate 25.

The sun is out now and the river has mostly receded back into its normal riverbed.  My lawn is this incredible shade of bright green from all the rain that fell.  We are all hopeful that life will return to normal soon and that this flood turns out to be a hundred year flood like the media claim and not a 30 year event.
