WOW!!!!
I can't imagine the devestation this has caused, and as a Scouts Canada leader, I'm glad to hear that all the Scouts are okay and helped out.
As a family that has a 30ft trailer and uses it A LOT, it's difficult to imagine this happening.
My heart goes out to everyone involved.
Marsye, please keep us updated today.

We just got home. I can't give anymore news other than one more body was found. Still alot missing. I took some pictures of the river but its hard to see in the pictures just how high the water was and the damage its done. The tiny town of Langley with only one country store had cars, trucks, law enforcements, rescue vehicles, people set up with grills and smokers feeding people, horse trailers with horses, ambulances, etc... parked everywhere. There was also alot of people just sitting in cars, under shade trees, laying in backs of pickups, laying on the ground, etc. as if they were waiting for the news of their missing family members. The amount of media there was just amazing!
many trees down all down the river
