The Rock River Floods!

I had some questions about the flooding--it is basically only in one neighborhood along the Rock River, but there is also flooding in Wisconsin along the river. The Rock River does flow into the Mississippi. If interested you can read this article: http://www.rrstar.com/communities/x1470883983/Residents-Rock-River-Valley-flood-close-to-unprecedented

The Ziemann quoted in the article is the member of our ward whose house is surrounded by sandbags, and has several sump pumps pumping water out of the house. Last night the sand bags collapsed and they thought they were loosing the battle. So this morning, they started to evacuate items via boat and load them into trucks. They also brought in more sand bags to rebuild the wall. It kind of reminds me of Jacob 5, and we all just keep on working even when all seems lost.

Mike actually missed church today, as did half the ward in helping the Ziemanns. It was neet to see the Ward pull together!
