Sunday ..... before the flood


Sunday morning we got up and started getting ready for church. After a few phone calls we decided maybe we shouldn't go because of roads flooding around Nashville. Around 9 am the direct TV went out followed soon by the power. We went outside and noticed water was collecting at the end of street in the cul-de-sac. About 10:30 Emergency management came by and said to spread the word people close to the river are being evacuated. Mark went down the street to help some neighbors move furniture upstairs. About 11:00 I started moving stuff. A crew of men from our neighborhood moved house to house down the street moving furniture upstairs. With more time and better planning we could have moved more but, we got a lot upstairs. By 1:00 we were gone and the water was in our house.
