Historic Kauai Flood--Day #3

We actually had sunshine today, which helped the morale of those "playing" in the mud. I'll let the photos tell the rest of today's story.  Thanks to all that have called, text, brought food and given donations for flood relief.  Our little island has a long road ahead and knowing people are praying for us gives us strength.
The morning colors made me think of the old saying "red sky in morning, sailor take warning."
The forecast is for heavy rains beginning Thursday.

Our little neighborhood was featured on the local morning  news.



Our washer and dryer were victims of the storm, I spent time at the Laundromat. 

Ron's tools take a WD40 bath

The house is a bit cozy

A path cleared to Darin's cottage

Back side our home

This area normally looks like a grassy park...It's all river rock now.

Hoping tomorrow's  weather forecast is WRONG.

    Sending positive vibes your way Val! It looks like so much work to be done yet..You sound in good spirits. which I figured you would be! Are all the houses there elevated like in your pics? Kauai will come back stronger than ever...just will take time! Just wanted to let you know I was thinking of you and praying hard!

    Hi Val, as I’ve shared your photos with John, he thinks you’ve moved since the time we came to your house. He remember a narrow driveway leading to your cottage behind another house. It was near a school. Is this the same place?
    Sending love and prayers!

    At least your home is still there, but still can't believe how scary this all sounds.
