Flood Series

The first in the series of of the Flood.

In this NWI video, my parent's next door neighbor Lori is leaving at time stamp 2:49 in the video. It's early am on Sunday. In editing of the news video it seems they mixed the timing up a bit, but you get the gist of it.

As Lori pulls out of the driveway you can see the corner of my parents house to the right of Lori's driveway.


Lori and Mark's driveway will be shown a lot in the video's that will follow. It is a good reference point. Andre is my parent's neighbor on the left, and you can see the sump pump hose outside and see how the rain, river, and muck finally cover it completely.

I would like to thank Lori, Mark and Andre for the love and friendship and kindness they have shown my family throughout this entire trying time.

NOTE:
*ANDRE'S HOUSE IS NOT SHOWN IN THIS VIDEO, HIS HOUSE IS TO THE LEFT OF MY PARENTS.
*MS. DEMAR IN THIS VIDEO, IS IN FRONT OF HER HOME (WHITE HOUSE), IN A PAIR OF SHORTS AND AT THE TIME THE WATER IS KNEE HIGH. LITTLE DID SHE KNOW DURING THE FILIMING OF THIS HER HOUSE WOULD END UP BEING CONDEMNED. MY FAMILY'S THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH HER. SHE WAS GIVEN UNTIL DUSK ON WEDNESDAY TO GO INTO HER HOME ALONE, AND GRAB WHAT SHE COULD AND THEN THE HOUSE WAS CONDEMNED.
