Default To all Brits ,,,, ARE YOU SAFE ???

I drove down town Chicago to see Gail today. They had quite a rain
yesterday and many of the streets that go under other streets were
flooded and some people got stuck in water.

I guess it is hard for some people to figure out that cars don't run
well in three feet of water.

Gail is in good spirits but will need a lot of assistance when she get
home. She is still in the "Rehab Institute of Chicago,
http://www.ric.org/ .
It has a very neat web sight.

I hope all my friends across the pond stay safe and dry, you are in my
prayers.

Hugs & God bless,
Dennis & Gail

who also extends hope for all our Brit friends.....


Well thanks, but how about those in other parts of the world where there is
heat and drought? I reckon they're much more dangerous, there's little
opportunity for escape.

Driving home from Wales yesterday we saw a lot of flooded pastureland and in
one field swimming sheep. It was just outside a town well-named Welshpool.
Rivers were swollen with brown water but it will subside and the few deaths
we've had won't compare with those from heat exhaustion and thirst. Spoilage
of material goods isn't such a terrible thing either - in my opinion.

Our flooding has nothing on the New Orleans one :-(
