Good morning ladies. I just UpLoaded pictures from my cell phone onto my computer and that was a mistake, let me tell you!!!! I only have 300 pictures on my cell phone camera roll, but 2,525 pictures were uploaded and half the pics i didnt recognize the people in them. but i thought that i would share for Krystyna a few pictures of Long Beach and some of the effects of the hurricane!!! Update on K before i post them, she is still with her sister and my dear future father in law has been going from her sisters house to Long Beach to work everyday. Blaze and I were out this morning looking for gas, and saw a few FEMA trucks heading into the Long Beach area. We are still at my parents house, but went back to the house yesterday to get a few things for us and for Krystyna. She offically has all of her sewing machines with her at her sisters house and is feeling better about that!!!! and it will be a long time before things go back to normal. It will be months before our city would be able to go back to a little bit of normalcy, and there is still water in the crawl space under the house. They are going around and inspecting houses to and rating them green, yellow and red. OBVIOUSLY red is the worst and those in red will be helped first, but everyone in Long Beach will be getting help from FEMA. Just dont know when that will come and how long it will take. One of the pictures has red arrows and those arrows are pointing to the water level. I'm 5 foot even and the water level came up to the top of my shoulders. so it was between 4 and 5 feet high in the back yard. I dont know how high it got at the peak of the flooding inside the house I know it was around 3 to 4 feet, but i went to bed soon after the water started coming in and was around 2 feet in the home.
