Saturday after my last post, we got two calls from parents -- one from each set -- asking about how we were doing with flooding. This amused me because our flooding happened on Wednesday. Since then, the state has apparently had the worst flooding in 100 years or something.
We wouldn't have noticed ourselves, as none of the areas we went to over the weekend were directly affected. If it hadn't been for the calls from parents, we would only have noticed due to headlines later and because some friends of ours had their weekend plans altered due to the flooding; one friend was supposed to fly somewhere on Saturday, but was unable to reach Indy to get to the airport.
Basically, Bloomington itself wasn't hit too hard by that flooding. We mostly couldn't get anywhere. Depending on timing, the vehicle being driven, and the person behind the wheel, Bloomington was either an island or a peninsula. People couldn't get from Martinsville to Bloomington, and Mark has walked to Martinsville from our house. (Okay, so he's a little crazy, but still...)
