been displaced...all of that rain is coming north to the Ohio valley...we're 
getting it now!

Subject: Stus-List Water everywhere






Perhaps you've seen the news about the flooding in south Louisiana.  It's been 
bad.  Lots of folks flooded out.  Lots of sad stories.


The water began to enter my neighborhood in Baton Rouge early yesterday 
morning.  The Admiral and I watched the water slowly rise in the street in 
front of our house.  It filled the street then crept over the sidewalk inching 
its way toward the house.  It stopped about 8 last night 20 inches below the 
elevation of the house floor.  We still have water in the street but it's 
receding slowly.  Others weren't so lucky.


Many of the Admiral's family and friends were flooded.  


Roads are still closed.  It will be days before many folks can return to their 
homes to assess damage.


To make this sailing related, I keep Touche' sails in a commercial storage 
nearby.  The storage building is adjacent the bayou which backflowed into our 
neighborhood.  The Admiral and I went to the storage unit yesterday morning to 
raise stuff off the floor.  Touche's sails didn't get raised.  I'll go visit 
the storage later today.  Hopefully it remained dry.  Otherwise I'll be drying 
sails all week and being grateful it's not clothes, furniture and belongings.


Thoughts and prayers to all affected.
