    Wow. Thinking of them.

    Thanks for the thoughts and prayers of all. We heard this morning that the water came back on (after a week being gone). Most of the streets are clogged with mud and debris. It will take months to get everything opened back up. It is still raining, but the road crews are starting to get the main thoroughfares opened. Lorena’s brother Lynn has his crews working 24/7 on the buildings for which he is responsible all over the region.
