Midwest Floods

[cirquelover]

Most of my mothers family is in Iowa. My Mom and Grandma have had flooding in the basement but otherwise ok. I get daily reports on the flooding and how bad it is in Des Moines for all my cousins. It was worse when they were having tornados and the beginning of the floods. Then I worried about the two little old ladies in the basement. It was worse at night because they both have oxygen at night and couldn't hear the town siren if their life depended on it, which it does! There's not much you can do with two stubborn ladies when you are many states away though.

The crop situation is horrible and I can't imagine Iowa without corn. It just doesn't seem possible!
