That is so sad. My family loves to camp. This really is scary.

It just seems that so many tragedies have happened lately, I guess all we can do for these people is pray that their loved ones are found safe and sound, and give them strength to keep going on with life. It is a sad day, week, month, for many in this world.

The really sad part is many are buried under mud and may not be found for years.

This same river very close by our family cemetery. We are headed that way this morning. If I thought we could help somebody we would.

Marsye, I know how hard this tragedy is for you and I want to thank you for staying strong for us so you can continue to give us updates. There may be readers with friends/loved ones in that area reading this post for updates.
You keep us uplifted with your humor on so many days, this is a time for reverence and you have done such a wonderful job of giving the victims and the situation all the respect deserved.
Thank you for again being there for us.
Regards, Dorothy

My husband has been following it on the weather channel. Last he heard the count was up to 16. I hope there aren't anymore. This is so tragic. We plan on going through Ark on highway 40 this week, hope we can get through. I will be praying for all of the people who have lost their families.
