just in case some of you are interested here is a link to the local paper and pics of the flood that has hit our area.  this is nothing new...it happens every year but this  is a 1/100 cycle and the last time the water was this high was in 1973.  i remember it vividly because my uncles took my brother and i canoing down our main street
