Hey, any day you are breathing is a good day...

That being said, First a freeze, now a flood. I can see him looking up to the sky screaming "COME ON! ENOUGH ALREADY!".

But what a loss! I do feel bad for them. I imagine the vines will grow back.

Im glad it was a fresh water flood, it that is a good thing (flood I mean).
the saltwater flood we had after 4 yeas is still taking its toll.

Last time I was in Galveston and since that flood, all those big beautiful, very old oaks along the central street, which goes through Galveston, were all dead or dying. I could hardly believe the water level had gotten so high downtown. My brother still lives in Texas City; many, many years ago I lived in Dickinson.

This is even more sad when you compare the story's photo to the pix on their website. Hope they do get back up and going again!
