NASHVILLE FLOODING

After going on facebook and seeing all the pictures at "I survived the great Nashville monsoon of May 1st". It is so unreal to believe that all of this water could be in Nashville, Tn.
 How many times I have drove down I40 and would not never in so many years believe I would see it covered in water and cars everwhere. There is no water no where that is near Blue Hole Road on the interstate. This just shows what can happen with rain.
 Nashville sits down in a valley and most of all the snow and rain goes around it. I have been everywhere in Nashville and the areas around it and can't believe it is most all under water.
 Operland hotel with water in it. It is so beautiful that you think it looks like what a touch of heaven will look like with all of the pretty flowers and trees.
My son said that maybe the rain has even caused some flooding down in the Amish country. I hope they have not worked hard and got most of their gardens put out yet.
We all need to pray for the people as most of them may not have flood insurance as there is never that much rain to cause flooding.
 I know a lot of our friends don't have any and they have businesses and don't have any for them.
 I have been thru two floods. You just get out with your life. You lose most everything. No time to grab your photos, clothes or furniture or important papers. Some things is like in a fire they can never be replaced.
You can gut your house and still ten years later be sweeping flood mud or vac. dried flood mud from your carpets even tho you put down new. It just keeps coming out of the walls. You just can't get rid of it.
 If anyone goes to help with the clean up make sure you wear some kind of rubber or plactic gloves. My mom get real sick from handling some of our things without gloves on and almost died back then. They never had the disposable gloves to wear back then. I guess people just don't think to wear them.
Anybody that can needs to lend a helping hand down there.
A lot of the dogs and cats have been misplaced and needs to be feed so don't forget about them. Take them in and help feed them.
 I am sure you can get a picture of them, if you find any, on one of the tv stations website or on facebook and may help brighten a childs eyes with a found pet after losing their home or toys.
