Nashville flood May 2010

Wow. It's been quite a weekend to say the least. Luckily we are all safe and dry at my house and the family is all good. I wish I could say the same about the rest of Nashville. It's incredibly sad. So many people have lost everything. We've had over 13 inches of rain in just 2 days. The rivers and creeks around Nashville are overflowing. As of right now the Cumberland River still hasn't crested and it is already up to 2nd Avenue. I am going to share a few pictures I've found online. I didn't take any of these pictures. I will also share a couple videos from the local tv station and a Flickr slide show. Apparently the National Media is not really paying much attention, but folks it's BAD.

Here is the link to the Flickr slide show of downtown Nashville.

This one is actually the road leading to my school.

Glad you and Mike are okay!! Was thinking about you the other day when I saw Wilson County had to go back in. Shouldn't be much longer 'til you're out for the summer. ;)
