Speaking of flooding...

...this short article is about my family in Wimberley. They're also featured in this news video (which starts with an account of people still missing before it gets to the feel-good stuff at about :45).

I'm glad they got their stuff back! Sorry to hear about people still missing. :/

Glad they got the box back!

I'm mostly amazed that it floated 19 miles!

Heh. I'm pretty sure I've floated 19 miles down those rivers--though at their usual pace. I am amazed it got that far without getting stuck. That says something about the volume of water vs. everything else that the river was carrying.

I'm happy to read they're okay and this bit of history reunited is just lovely.

Yeah, they fared much better than other people along the river did, and finding the box is icing on the cake.
