Default Photos of the flooding in GA...

For those of you who heard about the major flooding in the southeast, I thought you might find these photos interesting. It's crazy! I'm so glad my family and all our friends here are okay!

My gosh, I can't even imagine how awful for the people's whose homes were flooded like this.

My heart is breaking for the woman showing the picture of the grandson she lost. What a tragedy. I am so sorry for that family and the others who lost loved ones.

I always hate seeing homes underwater like this, and imagining the mess and destruction those poor people will come home to.

The death and destruction are so sad but I also think of the horrible cleanup and decisions to be made afterward. How do you ever start?
