flood news


As everyone knows, it's been raining great amounts in the Midwest. Fond du Lac is very low in the valley, so we just get saturated. We personally were not spared over the weekend. 2 of our 6 houses had 2 feet of water in the basement. Unfortunately, our own home also did. We lost everything in the basement. Our washer, dryer, tools, clothing, American girl doll collections, bird cages, dog food, cat food, bird seeds, Cd's, TVs, exercise equipment and multiple miscellaneous items were ruined. Basically everything. Paul managed to save some framed photos. It was kind of funny, in a surreal sort of way. The cat's sat on the third step (from the bottom) and watched as their cat box floated by. An insurance man was due here today, but was so busy he didn't get here. Maybe tomorrow. We always wanted to clean the basement thoroughly...well now is the chance :(
