Start a new thread on this board and see if anyone can help. Make sure you give their location, someone might be close and can help.

See my post Vette. Emergency services says they have a lot of boats in the area. But lots of people stranded. Here's hoping they get to them soon. Prayers for everyone.

I love these days. Wife is at work, they are telling her roads are closed and covered with water.

Meanwhile, I leave chuckie cheese and drive these very roads and tell her they are high and dry.

She still texts me like every 20 seconds asking how to get home. I'm like same way you always get home.

If anyone in madisonville/bedico needs help, just post up.
