Jun. 18th, 2008 03:24 pmRight now I feel like I can't really do much other than look at pictures of the flooding in Iowa and be very, very sad.
The Art Museum
The Mayflower, where both my aunt and uncle lived in college
Hancher
Art Building West, just a few blocks (thankfully downhill) from where my aunt, uncle, and cousins live
I remember the flood of 1993, which looked an awful lot like this:
Downtown Davenport under water
They've been saying that this is a 500 year flood - and I've been reading that so many people just don't have flood insurance. My friend Sonya's family's going to be alright - they have crop insurance - but many of their neighbors do not. She said that she had been driving around with her dad last week and he pointed to a neighbor's field and said "this is about a million dollars worth of crops lost".
